Hi Thom, I saw that too and was not alone.
Try the same on REALbasic 2007r1 for Windows and this will not happens (it does not happens to me). I do not wanted to talk about that until now because I do not wanted to write: "Windows have higher priority than Macintosh" [1] (but I already says that Linux is a second citizen class); it is a reality, but were is there something to rant about ? If this is their first sold IDE, they do their best for their greatest market. [2] I also use a G4 PowerBook (15" Alu, 512MB). The work-around is to duplicate the Control and drag it at the needed location. Weird. HTH, Emile BTW: I just recall that I reported that here sometimes ago; it must be in the archives... >Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2007 00:03:26 -0400 >From: Thom McGrath <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Annoying Copy Control Bug in 07r1 >To: REALbasic NUG <[email protected]> > >Don't know where I might find this in the bugbase, but maybe somebody >already knows the report.

[1] I saw some other evidences of that: the Windows version does not show a bad behavior I saw on Macintosh (PPC, not Intel Mac). Check the Slider Control for example: behave nice on Windows, a click is fired twice on Mac OS X; same project. [2] I do not think that this is related to a kind of computer inside the Macintosh platform, but this is only a feeling. PS: I am a bit bitter on the bug front because of Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger). Even in its 9th revision, some bugs I saw in 10.4 are still there. Worst, these are easy to display, fully reproducible, and so on. I am not in an optimistic feeling about their squash in 10.5. But this is a personal feeling not based on 10.5 informations 'cause I do not have any 10.5 version. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
