Whoa!

This is a prime example as to why using GridBagConstraints2 is a complete
mess as soon as you have more than a few components on the screen.

If you use GridBagConstraints you can create 1 constraints object and resue
it for each component, modifying it slightly for each component.

The first thing that I noticed is that you are using XYLayout. From what I
hear you should avoid this layout manager like the plague.

What is the minimum size of the image? Are you sure the image is actually
being sized at 1 pixel. Is it possible that the image is kind of being
scrolled off the screen?

What happens if you set weighty to 1.0 and fill to GridBagConstraints.BOTH
for the image control?

It sounds like its related to the fact that the GridControl is trying to hog
all the room on the dialog.
