Surely that is not the recommended usage for *all* button edit based components? If so, why not simply fix the component to have an embedded panel (as you suggest) without the developer having to do that manually. Resource count would be the same either way, but the latter would be much easier to work with. Or fix the Form Designer, to take the button into account when it shows the grab handles or does width alignment against other components. So is this going to be an issue with all composite based components? For example, in tiOPF there are some custom GUI components that are all composite components. Meaning, it is a few components working together as one: Double selection listbox, advanced date range which uses radio buttons as well, etc... So alignment or selection in Form Designer will fail on all those, unless I manually embed them in another TPanel. Sounds more like a bug in Lazarus, because Delphi's Form Designer handles composite components as one large component.
