Class dpscomponents.RelativeLayout 

java.lang.Object
   |
   +----dpscomponents.RelativeLayout
public class RelativeLayout
extends Object
implements LayoutManager
This is for placing components relatively to each other or to the parent panel with an offset. The offset direction depends intuitively on the relative position required. Relative positions are : all of which are named after what they implement. Above is centered above the reference, aboveLeft is same left-aligned... Minimal example provided for testing: 
import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;
public class testmin extends Applet {
    Label inst_TopView;
    Label inst_MOSTransistor;
    Dimension d;
    public void init() {
	RelativeLayout rl = new RelativeLayout(new Dimension(200, 100));
	setLayout( rl );
	add( "1", inst_MOSTransistor = new Label("MOS"));
	rl.setConstraint( inst_MOSTransistor, null, RelativeLayout.insideUpperLeft, 5, 5 );
	inst_MOSTransistor.setBackground( Color.green );
	add( "1", inst_TopView = new Label("TopView"));
	rl.setConstraint( inst_TopView, inst_MOSTransistor, RelativeLayout.right, 5, 0 );
	reshape( 0, 0, 200, 100 );
    }
}
