I once wrote a custom layout manager for Swing, but it used the Java absolute layout manager in the workings of it. So I find it perplexing that AbsoluteLayout is deprecated in v1.5. Until I read that in the docs, I was going to do an Android version of it. I hope it gets undeprecated in v2. Cheers.
