I know I can change panels by using card layout but while I was browsing I saw an effect where panels move from left or right to replace the current panel.
With Card Layout, changing panel is working but can't achieve a moving panel effect.
I don't know what it's called. I don't know if "dynamic" is the correct term for it.
So here's the link to help you guys understand my question better.

According to the description it's all done in Swing and no JavaFX.

Sorry about the basic question. I tried to find an answer on Google looking for expressions such as "unmoving jpanel java swing" or "static jpanel java swing" but could not find anything useful.
I'm trying to compose a screen with two components, an umoving (fixed position) JPanel at the bottom of the screen containing a few buttons and another JPanel which scrolls vertically and horizontally above it.
This construct is going to be fitted in an already existing application.
I could provide some code but I'm assuming the above description is enough to result in one or more suggestions on how to accomplish it overall.
I am stuck trying to make the following kind of slide menu in Swing.
I have searched entire web but I didn't find any tutorial or maybe I missed that. Can you please suggest a solution or a tutorial? I don't need code but just the components to use.
This is very simple in Swing.
What you are looking for is a JSplitPane. You can start with it closed and it has arrows (or other symbols depending on your look and feel) that can be clicked on.
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/splitpane.html
Note: A slider is a very different component. (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/slider.html)
Edit: Based on your comment it sounds like actually are looking for an animated opening of the slider (which is hard to tell from a static image).
In that case this question is a duplicate, look here: Animation for divider movement in JSplitPane
I have a somewhat simple question, but I have been looking for a solution and not finding it, since I am having some time problems I will ask here
I am programming a simple game in java(since I am still learning), and in the using a borderlayout, since it fits perfectly what I want, 3 buttons on the bottom and a internalframe in the north with the game screen, however I also require a toolbar on the top,is there anyway I can change the layout so it allows me to do this, or a any simple workaround? This type of layout is perfect for what I want and the others ones don't really please me.
I know this is probably a silly question but any help would be welcome
What if you add a JPanel that contains two other panels: one for your buttons and one for the content you want above north? Or you can similarly split up other regions by putting a panel that contains other panels or components.
Edit: You can put your toolbar in the north and the rest of your components can sit in a new panel which can be placed in the center.
If I am not mistaken, you may add a menu to a JFrame and still have the borderlayout be in the frame.
The menu would be above the top internal panel and the three buttons (having to be in a panel themselves) could be put into the south section of the frame.
All of this should work without any problems.
Just wondering, how bug is the internal panel? Is it the entire rest of the screen or only the top sliver? If its the rest of the screen, then put it in center, and for a sliver, put it in the north section.
In C#, to make the tabs go from right to left, I set RightToLeft to Yes and RightToLeftFormat to true. How do I do the same thing in Java? How do I set a JTabbedPane's tabs to display from right to left? Please see the image link below to see what I mean by displaying tabs right to left.

I assume by "tabbed pane" you are referring to javax.swing.JTabbedPane.
To answer your question: AFAIK there is no easy way to do what you want. The BasicTabbedPaneUI(or the TabbedPaneUI which is defined by your application look and feel) which is responsible for painting the tab area of the tabbed pane would require some changes to be able to do what you need.
If you do not have the time to write your own UI, you could look for solutions in the web. I doubt that there would be a ready to use solution to your question though, but then again, who knows?
Hope this helps you a bit.
Then i'm refer from "How to Use Tabbed Panes" to create a new project based by JTabbedPane component...
It's enough to use "setComponentOrientation" method to change orentation of JTabbedPane.

I have created 5 very similar panels that are suppuosed to be visible in the same area of a frame on at a time, What I mean is that when the app stars one of them (JPanel0) is visible and the other four are created but invisible and when i hit Button1, JPanel1 sets to visible and JPanel0 goes invisible, same with all.
I manage to get close with the BorderLayout But I cant get all of them to be centered in what would be the center position. Can someone help me? Thank you very much!
Could CardLayout be what you may be looking for?
The Java Tutorials has an article on How to Use CardLayout, which includes an example which switches between a couple of JPanels which get swapped by using CardLayout.
Another option would be to use OverlayLayout.
