just a little part I copied out of the java API's, should answer your question:

public void setHorizontalAlignment(int alignment)

Sets the horizontal alignment of the text. Valid keys are:

* JTextField.LEFT
* JTextField.CENTER
* JTextField.RIGHT
* JTextField.LEADING
* JTextField.TRAILING

invalidate and repaint are called when the alignment is set, and a PropertyChange event ("horizontalAlignment") is fired.

Parameters:
alignment - the alignment
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if alignment is not a valid key
