title: Component setSize method in FlowLayout object
body: <p>I'm currently making a GUI that makes use of the FlowLayout class. Now, this class is meant to allow components be set by their prefer sized methods and I believe, isn't supposed to have priority in setting the component size. However, when I used a setSize method for a JTextField, the FlowLayout object didn't seem to recognize the change size command. But when I used the setColumn method, the FlowLayout object did respond to the change in size command.</p>
  
  <p>Why is this?</p>
