I have a class called NumJTextField that extends JTextField.  The code
follows:

public NumJTextField() {
    setMargin(new Insets(2, 2, 2, 2));
    setHorizontalAlignment(JTextField.RIGHT);
}

Problem is, when I setText on the textfield in my code, it appears
hidden behind the left side of the field.  I can manually scroll the
field over and see my code, but this is of course unacceptable.  Any
ideas why the field doesn't setText in a clean manner?  If it's
important, I have the textFields expanding as needed using a
GridBagLayout and I reassign the value of the textFields many times
(repainting doesn't seem to help after each assignment).

Thanks.
