Zitat von Graeme Geldenhuys <[email protected]>:

You need following:
1. Drop additional panel (P3) on Form
2. Make its border invisible and Aligh = alLeft
3. Drop P2 on P3 and make P2.Aligh = alBottom
4. Drop P1 on Form and make P1.Aligh = alRight
As I know, it is the only way...
Thanks I tried that, but there is a minor correction. P3 must be
alClient, not alLeft.
Now it looks like I wanted, but that's a really odd way of having to
do it. I would think creation order, or the order in which you set
Align would make a lot more sense - and reduce the amount of
components (resources) required to accomplish the same result. I guess
Borland was smoking something illegal the day they implemented the
Align property. :-)
You can not use the creation order, because it is fixed. This would
make it impossible to drag a control in the designer to another
position.
The order in which you set Align is a bad idea, because
1. it needs a new property to store that
2. it is not clear/intuitive what should happen when you drag a
control in the designer.
Borland implemented a limited, but visually easy to understand system.
IMO Borland did a few things wrong, but Align was a good idea.
Of course adding an optional more flexible layout engine would be an
even better idea.
