set 4 positions in BoxLayout

[aleplgr]

Hi! I hope someone could help:
I defined a BoxLayout JPanel because I need to show in this order:
a checkbox
a textfield
another checkbox
another texfield

and this works fine:

JPanel jPanelBoEx = new JPanel();
jPanelVars.add( jPanelBoEx, BorderLayout.LI NE_START);
jPanelBoEx.setL ayout(new BoxLayout(jPane lBoEx, BoxLayout.PAGE_ AXIS));

jPanelBoEx.add( jchkbox1);
jPanelBoEx.add( jTextField1);
jPanelBoEx.add( jchkbox2);
jPanelBoEx.add( jTextField2);

But I need not to show them in the center, they must be shifted some position to the right so I use this:

jPanelBoEx.setB order(BorderFac tory.createEmpt yBord er(0, 160, 0, 0));
To shift the four of them to the right, but I need the two textfields to be more to the right than the 2 checkboxes..

But I can't find how to "move" the textfields to a different position than the checkboxes.. I can only position the 4 of them toguether, is there a way?

Thanks in advance.

Put every object in its own JPanel, apply your border trick to each JPanel and
add those four panels to your jPanelBoxEx.
