We are stuck on the following problem:
	
We made a box that contains buttons. This box can variate in size during the
execution of the program in which it is used. Therefor we made it a patch, so
it can be reallocated and redrawn. We believe that we call reallocate and
redraw at the right moments because when for example we have a box with 5
buttons and empty this box and fill it with 7 buttons, these 7 buttons are
correctly displayed. The problem is however that the last two buttons in this
example can't be pressed (i.e. if we click on one of the last two buttons,
WHICH ARE OUTSIDE THE AREA WHICH WAS OCCUPIED BY THE 5 ORIGINAL BUTTONS,
press() isn't called). 

Does anyone know how this is caused or how this is solved? Does the repick() 
member in patch have anything to do with this, and if so, how should we use it? 

Many thanks in advance, greetings,
