To followup on this bug, please contact ###@###.###
This code example adds 2 fields and a TextArea to a Panel. Not exactly what I'd do but it should work. The problem is relatively minor- unless you're trying to type on the last line of the TextArea, since the last line is not visible and the second-to-last is only partly visible.
 
This one comes from a customer.
 _____Begin Customer Data_____
What happens: In the attached program, a TextArea is added to a panel and
the panel is added to the frame. A List is added below the panel. Note
that the bottom anchor of the TextArea is obscured by the List; changing
the size of the visible part of the list has no effect.

Thanks for looking into this!

In the code below I have removed the List for clarity- the bottom of the TextArea is still not visible even without any other objects added to the panel after it.
