This question is related to my previous question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2376027/how-to-generate-cartesian-coordinate-x-y-from-gridbaglayout

I have successfully get the coordinate of each pictures, however when I checked the coordinate through (System.out.println) and the placement of the images on the screen, it seems to be wrong. e.g. if on the screen it was obvious that the x point of the first picture is on cell 2 which is on coordinate of 20, but the program shows x=1.

Here is part of the code:

public Grid (){

  setPreferredSize(new Dimension(600,600)); 
  ....
  setLayout(new GridBagLayout());
  GridBagConstraints gc = new GridBagConstraints();
  gc.weightx = 1d; 
  gc.weighty = 1d;
  gc.insets = new Insets(0, 0, 0, 0);//top, left, bottom, and right 
  gc.fill = GridBagConstraints.BOTH; 

  JLabel[][] label = new JLabel[ROWS][COLS];         
  Random rand = new Random();

  // fill the panel with labels
  for (int i=0;i<IMAGES;i++){
    ImageIcon icon = createImageIcon("myPics.jpg");
    int r, c;
    do{   
  //pick random cell which is empty
     r = (int)Math.floor(Math.random() * ROWS);
        c = (int)Math.floor(Math.random() * COLS); 
    } while (label[r][c]!=null);

    //randomly scale the images                
    int x = rand.nextInt(50)+30;
    int y = rand.nextInt(50)+30;                  
    Image image = icon.getImage().getScaledInstance(x,y, Image.SCALE_SMOOTH);
    icon.setImage(image);

    JLabel lbl = new JLabel(icon); // Instantiate GUI components 
    gc.gridx = r;
    gc.gridy = c;         
    add(lbl, gc); //add(component, constraintObj);         
    label[r][c] = lbl; 
}

I checked the coordinate through this code:

Component[] components = getComponents();     
for (Component component : components) {
   System.out.println(component.getBounds());
}
