Hi Paul, Can you file a bug report about this? There was a little churn in the s/b between .6 and .7. One thing to check is you use savingStandalone or standaloneSaved messages. These have caused problems in the past and subtle changes in the s/b has usually triggered them. Warmest Regards,

Re: LC8 Geometry Manager

+1 tabstops is another property I use quite a bit in scrolling list fields which is no longer available in the LC8 PI. Will the geometry manager appear at some point? I know it's a bit rough round the edges for complex situations but I've always found it to work quite well for simple resizing.
