It seems to be a bug. If I do this:


It seems that Buddy 2 is not aligned to the slider.

If I do that:


The Gui gets messed up, because the 2nd button that was initially at the top is drawn downwards by the Buddy. So at the top is a gap, at the bottom the Gui is too short.

Or am I wrong?

Buddy2 does not get assigned to the slider as M2 has not been created until the next line. If you create the second button before creating the slider it will draw the button on the form before drawing the slider and cause the slider to appear further down. There are a couple ways to solve this. You could either use absolute positions for the controls so that they stay where you put them and create the buttons before creating the slider or you can assign the buddy properties after creating the controls:

As you've demonstrated, the slider-buddying process causes problems with relatively positioned controls. I'll look into it further. Thanks.

@ corrupt: Thanks for your workaround!

@ Chris: Thanks for updating!
