I am confused by an apparent restriction.

Mac os

4D version: 16 R2

When I create a list view (say 1400 pixels wide) and it is resizable then the 
user can grab the right lower corner and resize the window. If they make it 
very narrow then more and more information of the various listed records gets 
hidden. If they make it very wide, the rightmost field expands to take 
advantage of the space made available. This is fine and expected.

My problem is with a button in the header. In the design environment, I set it 
at the upper right of the window. I set its property to Horizontal Sizing: 
Move. 

If I make the window, very wide then the button keeps up traveling to the right 
as I would want.

If I start to make the window narrow, then at first the button behaves as I 
would like. It travels to the left so as to stay in view. But then it "stops" 
and as I make the window narrower, it disappears from view. I am not making the 
window some bizarre extremely narrow thing. There is nothing in the header that 
is "in the way" 

Is there some setting that I do not understand that I have applied to make the 
button refuse to move further to the left? How does 4D decide just where it is 
going to stop letting the button move as the user shrinks the window?
