Recently the anchors behavior has changed.
I have a form with a control anchored to another one.
With the latest revisions it happens that when the second control is
hidden, the visible one changes its place, inheriting the anchors of
the hidden control.
Is it an intended change or a bug?
Something changed. See
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Anchor_Sides#Anchoring_to_invisible_controls
Well this has pro's and con's. It can make sense if the control is
hidden since the beginning, much less if the control is hidden run-time,
because it causes other controls jump around.
In my case a label prompts the user to enter something in an edit. The
label is anchored to the form, and the edit to the label. When the user
enters what requested, the label is hidden, and suddenly the edit jumps
to the top of the form!
Moreover this inhibits the trick of using a hidden control to perform
some special purpose anchoring (e.g. when you need more than 100 pixels,
because of layout requirements).
I'd be strongly in favor of reconsidering this feature.
