I'm trying to add a number of simple Swing elements to a JPanel that is 
using a GridLayout. When I add a JComboBox to the panel, the box is 
sized so as to entirely fill its portion of the grid. Is there a setting 
I can make so that the box's size can be determined, probably at 
runtime, in an appropriate way, given the font in use at the time?
