Snap to grid

edited December 2003 in General
I am having a snap to grid issue with the new version of RBuilder Enterprise
and also had it in previous versions. I put a text label on the designer
make it taRightJjustified and then place a dbText label next to it
taLeftJjustified. I then shift-select the two and perform a ctrl-c and then
paste a fresh set on the designer. Snap to Grid options are set to 8 and 8.
When I grab the two newly created controls and drag them to place under the
original two items they do not line up correctly. I would expect the right
edge of the taRightJustified new control to align with the right edge of the
original. This happens in almost all circumstances, however I have had it on
some forms when they lined up correctly.
Any sol'ns.-

Is there a place of FAQ or archives of these forums?

    Try turning the AutoSize property off when copying and pasting components
    and see if that helps.
