Fabian: The 12 pixels is what I rememebered the height of the frame title to be. It has to be taken into consideration when figuring out co-ordinates because 0,0 on a Frame is under the title bar. When you (or JBuilder) gets that wrong, the end result is a run-time shifting. The reason I'm asking for code is that I *can't* reproduce it -- at least not from the descriptions to date. By looking at your code, however, I'll be more able to reverse-engineer the steps you took in the designer. Alternately, if you can give me steps like: File | New Application Design Frame1 Drop Button X to the Frame // now, even an idiot like you, Rich, should be able to see the problem // ;-) -Rich Fabian Beutin wrote: > > > Can you give me a snippet of code?
