John. I tried your examples below. I DO NOT see any of the
problems you describe. You have not shown that the GroupBox is
indeed the Parent of the control shown inside it. Your Dragging, Copy
& Paste and Undo movies indicate that it is not, and so, what you
show is correct behavior.
Simply by placing one control inside another does not guarantee
that the outer is the parent. It depends on their Order. Try to
select what you want to be the parent and click the "Back" button.
Then select the 'inner' control and see if the 'outer' one shows the
red 'Parent highlight box.' If you see the red box then it is the
parent. Then try to repeat you exercises.
In my applications I have many nested controls inside GroupBoxes
which themselves sometimes are inside GroupBoxes and then even inside
Roundrectanges. If you carefully set the parental hierarchy all your
example operations will show what you'd expect, at least what I
expect them to do. I also have copied such hierarchical combinations
from one window to another without loosing a control and its
hierarchy.
For me 2007r2 works like it should in this regard. The only issue
is with TabPanels inside TabPanels which RS does not support
