really simple JButton question

[kate damond]

Hi,
I just want to set the margins, or pding or something on JButton, so the text on it fills more of the space (I mean not leaving a big gap all the way round the text on a button.)
Cheers,
Kate

I think your answer is in the question
JButton but = new JButton();
but.setMargin(new Insets(top, left, bottom, right));
// where top, left, bottom and right are ints...

Thanks Martin - I was confused about the INSETS bit ! Works a treat.
