Which of the following is a feature of GridBagLayout?

  1. Simplicity and ease of use

  2. Flexibility in component positioning

  3. Limited control over component layout

  4. Automatic resizing and positioning

The correct answer is: Flexibility in component positioning

GridBagLayout is a flexible layout manager that allows developers to precisely position components in a wide variety of ways. This feature is not available in other layout managers, such as FlowLayout or BorderLayout. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because GridBagLayout is not known for its simplicity or ease of use, limited control over component layout, or automatic resizing and positioning. These features are more associated with other layout managers. Therefore, B is the best choice because it accurately describes a key feature of GridBagLayout.
