Putting multiple Panes in single content pane

Question

Hi Geeks,

I have created JFrame and kept a JPanel in it. Now I have to split the JPanel to a scrollPane and a text Pane. My JPanel size is 1000(W),700(H). I wanted to devide it to scrollpane 700(W),700(H) and 300(W),700(H) textPane areas. But I am not able to do it. The main frame area is devided into two equal parts only. Can anybody help? Following are some code snippets

public JFrame getJFrame() {
 if (jFrame == null) {
  jFrame = new JFrame();
  jFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
  jFrame.setJMenuBar(getJJMenuBar());
  jFrame.setSize(1000, 700);
  jFrame.setContentPane(getJContentPane());
  jFrame.setTitle("Application");
 return jFrame;
}


private JPanel getJContentPane() {
 if (jContentPane == null) {
  jContentPane = new JPanel();
  GridLayout gridLayout = new GridLayout();
  gridLayout.setRows(1);
  jContentPane.setLayout(gridLayout);
  jContentPane.setSize(1000, 700);
  jContentPane.add(getScrollPane());
  jContentPane.add(getTextPane());
 }
 return jContentPane;
}

private JTextArea getTxtArea() {
 if (txtArea == null) {
  txtArea = new JTextArea();
  Font txtFont = new Font("serif",1,12);
  txtArea.setFont(txtFont);
  txtArea.setSize(700, 700);
 }
 return txtArea;
}

private JTextPane getTextPane() {
 if (jTextPane == null) {
  jTextPane = new JTextPane();
  jTextPane.setSize(300, 700);
  jTextPane.setBackground(Color.RED);
 }
 return jTextPane;
}

private JScrollPane getScrollPane(){
 if(scrollPane == null){
  scrollPane = new JScrollPane(getTxtArea());
  scrollPane.setVerticalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS);
  scrollPane.setSize(700, 700);

 }
 return scrollPane;
}
