JLabel label = new JLabel("Name (Centered Label): ");
JTextArea text = new JTextArea();
text.setText("Add name here...");
panel.setLayout(new GridBagLayout());The following is an example to center a JLabel in a JPanel with LayoutManager −

public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Demo Frame");
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
JLabel label = new JLabel("Name (Centered Label): ");
