<h1>:: Tutorial :: Factories ::</h1>
Forms provides factories that can create frequently used layouts, panels
and button bars. You should favor these factories over builders
to increase the consistency of your layouts and in turn applications.
<p>
<b>It is recommended to have the JGoodies Forms Demo open on your screen!</b>
<h2>ButtonBarFactory</h2>
The <tt>ButtonBarFactory</tt> vends prepared button bars for
general dialogs, wizards and in-form bars. It offers generic bars,
for example a right-aligned bar with 3 buttons, and specific bars,
for example <i>OK, Cancel, Help</i>.
See the <a href="../api/index.html">API docs</a> for details.
<h2>FormFactory</h2>
The <tt>FormFactory</tt> provides frequently used column and
row specifications.
For example <tt>FormFactory.GLUE_COLSPEC</tt> is a <tt>ColumnSpec</tt>
that represents a glue, i. e. a gap with initial size 0px that grows.
<h2>Borders</h2>
Class <tt>Borders</tt> provides a bunch of prepared and reusable
<tt>Border</tt> instances, for example <tt>EMPTY_BORDER</tt>,
<tt>DLU4_BORDER</tt> and <tt>DIALOG_BORDER</tt>.
