    <p>This is a loaded question.</p> <p>If it's purely about layouts, then I'd use a series of compound components with there own layouts to achieve the result you need...</p> <p>If it's about approaches, then it gets more complicated...</p> <p>Basically, you want to seperate the areas of responsibilities. </p> <p>From the question, there are two distinct models, a elevator model and a building model.</p> <p>The elevator model controls where the elevator for an individual shaft is where as the building model controls things like, the number of floors, the individual elevator models, the algorithm to determine how an elevator is called to a floor...</p> <p>The following is REALLY basic example of an idea. It's missing (amongst other things) the logic needed to call an elevator to a floor or stateful information about the elevators (moving, waiting, open...)</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Q759r.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <pre><code>public class Elevator { public static void main(String[] args) { new Elevator();

    1. COnice picture :-) Nitpicking, though: all panel extensions except the Shaft are not necessary (some like me might even call them evil ;-)

    2. CO@Kleopatra Yes and no (as always), I like the fact that I can isolate the logic of the buttons controls and the action listener for the buttons. It could allow me to drop a replacement into that position (if I was using a getter for the panel instead of creating it inline) - but it's still a fair point

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
