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... 2010/10/4 Graeme Geldenhuys <[email protected]> > Hi, > > I came across something unexpected today.
