Hi,

I have a panel, say WorkPanel for which the OverlayLayout is set.
I have placed one image into it. And when I click on any area of the image i want to add a textarea (JTextArea) over the image. (ie for adding comments to the image)

Now when i add textarea its getting added to the correct position. But when I start typing on the first textarea, all the textareas are moved to the centre of the image, overlapping each other. I am including the code here

			

			

			public class WorkPanel extends JPanel
			

			{
			

			public void paintComponent(Graphics g)
			

			{
			

			super.paintComponent(g);
			

			

			//Draw image
			

			g.drawImage(img, sx, sy, this);
			

			repaint();
			

			}
			

			

			...
			

			...
			

			OverlayLayout overlay = new OverlayLayout(this);
			

			this.setLayout(overlay);
			

			

			this.addMouseListener(new ImageMotionListener(this));
			

			this.addMouseMotionListener(new ImageMotionListener(this);
			

			...
			

			...
			

			}
			

			

			On mouse click event
			

			

			public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent me)
			

			{
			

			

			int x = me.getX();
			

			int y = me.getY();
			

			

			

			JTextArea cb = new JTextArea("comm :");
			

			

			Dimension dim = new Dimension(60, 50);
			

			cb.setSize(dim);
			

			cb.setMinimumSize(dim);
			

			cb.setMaximumSize(dim);
			

			cb.setPreferredSize(dim);
			

			cb.setLocation(x,y);
			

			

			workPanel.add(cb);
			

			}
