And then later (as a result of an Event), I do something like
constraints.gridx = 3;
myPanel.revalidate();

Will this have the expected effect, or do I need to remove the old
label, and re-add it with the new constraints?

Others have given the answer you were seeking. However I can't help
noticing that the code you quoted can never have the expected effect
since constaints != constraints :-)

Did I surround that code with an sscce tag? I don't think so. :-)
