Line wrap in a JTextArea causes JScrollPane to missbehave with MiGLayout
I am having trouble with the same thing as this guy: MigLayout JTextArea is not shrinking when used with linewrap=true and I used the solution described in one of the answers; to set the minimum size explicitly. This works fine if one places the JPanel which contains the JTextArea directly in a JFrame, and then resizes the window.
