This is frustrating!  I am designing a simple panel using the XYLayout.  I
quite often get into a situtation (not sure why/how) where I am aligning
some components by multi-selecting them and choosing "Align Left" from the
right-mouse context menu for example.  The UI aligns them perfectly and
things look great.  BUT when I compile (Ctrl-Shift-F9) the components that I
just aligned go right back to their old position.  I see this sort of stuff
ALL THE TIME using this GUI.  I bring a component to the front of another
object....re-compile, and poof! the component goes right back to the
previous state.  I have wasted literally hours and hours fighting JBuilder
trying to get out of this situation.  I delete the components, re add
them...I try to go to the source and move contructors around and recompile.
Sometimes it helps, but most times it does not.

What is up??  I am using JBuilder 10.  I would think version "10" would be a
little more stable than this.  I recently started using JBuilder again since
moving from another IDE.  I saw this same issue when I was using Jbuilder 7.

Man is this frustrating.

Any help please?

Thanks in advanced.
