Perhaps
JBuilder could work. It has an XY layout that allows you/designer to just drop
components onto the form. It can then convert that into a GridBagLayout or
whatever, just by changing the Layout Manager property for the form.
FYI - the
difficulties of Swing and layout managers (and the lack of good tools like your
request) are why we switched to .Net and WinForms...
