public BoxLayout(){
panel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(panel, BoxLayout.PAGE_AXIS));
}

When i try to uses this code my IDE gives a error messages with the PAGE_AXIS because it can't find the symbol? But i have everything you have and extra.

This is the full code:

package boxlayout;

import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;


public class BoxLayout {

JFrame frame = new JFrame("BoxLayout");
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
JButton Button1 = new JButton("1"), Button2 = new JButton("2");

public BoxLayout(){
panel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(panel, BoxLayout.PAGE_AXIS));
}

public static void main(String[] args) {



}
}
