title: java label setText and setBounds clashing?
body: <p>I would like to have a JLabel changint color to a random one, while jumping to a random position, and while changing its text.</p>
  
  <p>but the setText and setBounds seem to clash and i don't know why. if you comment out the setText then the setBounds will work, but they won't work together.</p>
  
  <pre><code>import java.awt.*;
  import java.util.*;
  import javax.swing.*;
  
  public class test2 extends JFrame { 
  
  private static JLabel label = new JLabel("0");
  private static Random gen = new Random();
  
  public test2() {
      JPanel panel = new JPanel();
      panel.add(label);
      this.add(panel);
  }
  
  public static void move() {
      for (int i = 0; i &lt; 10; i++) {
          int n = gen.nextInt(254)+1;
          int nn = gen.nextInt(254)+1;
          int nnn = gen.nextInt(254)+1;
          label.setText(""+i);
          //the setBounds command will not work with the setText command. why?
          label.setBounds(n*2, nn*2, 20, 20);
          label.setForeground(new Color(n, nn, nnn));
          try {
              Thread.sleep(200);
          } catch (Exception e) {}
      }
  }
  
  public static void main(String[] args) {
      test2 frame = new test2();
      frame.setVisible(true);
      frame.setSize(600, 600);
      frame.setResizable(true);
      frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
      frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);   
      move();
  }
