title: Create a Visual Studio type look using Java Swing
body: <p>I would like to create extend a Java Swing application to have a look somewhat similar to an IDE such as Eclipse or Visual Studio.  That’s, there would be a panel at the left that displays a tree, and a tab panel on the right that allows several elements of the tree to be opened and edited on right.  For this I could easily use a BorderLayout and just use the center and left areas.</p>
  
  <p>However, I would also like to have the ability for the user to drag the border between these two panels, just like Eclipse and Visual Studio allow.  I can think of several ways to do this, but was curious if anyone had found a particularly good way to do this, or knew of an example.  I’ve googled for it, but have not found anything.  </p>
