GBL breaks down for components with no 
minimum size defined, or it might be that the
problem occurs when components simply 
'get too small'. I avoid GBL generally, and am
a bit hazy on the details.

In any case, I did a quick test changing (the one
line needed changing to make that compilable &)
the JTables with no data, for JTrees (which get 
default data automatically) and noted that the layout 
starts to behave as you describe you want.  

The left area has around 1/3, the right 2/3 - all the 
way from minimum size to full screen (1024x768).

If you need this UI to behave even when those 
tables are empty, I suggest you look into setting
not just preferred size, but also minimum and
(go the hat trick) maximum sizes for the JTables 
or the JScrollPanes.
