I just had this situation with a pagepanel yesterday. My problem
arose from copying some controls from another window and pasting them
into one of the pages. At that point, in the IDE everything looked
fine. When I went to run the project, that's when I got the scrambled
eggs. I stopped the run, and back in the IDE everything looks normal.
I quit RB, and then start it up again, now the controls are a mess
just like they were on the last run. Out of frustration, I select the
pagepanel and hit delete, intending to just drag back in a copy of it
>from my previously saved version of the project and add the new
controls individually. But on a whim, I undo the delete, and voila,
the panel is back with everything in its proper place, including the
newly pasted controls. Worked fine in the IDE and runtime.
I can't say I'd recommend this voodoo approach, but in this situation
it worked out. Just thought I'd share that FWIW.
