I'm currently trying to align absolute sized Buttons to the borders of a GUI that can have different sizes.
To align the buttons, I tried to use a trick as setting BOTTOM|LEFT Alignment didn't worked. The funny thing is, that trick works in the Layout Editor but not in my production application, it seems to not updating the positions of the Buttons.
The little "trick" or better, hack, consists of one relativly positioned Panel Widget that's set to align to the bottom left of the screen. Inside this panel there are Buttons absolutly (pixel-) positioned and, too, aligned to the bottom left edge. Now, when i'm manually resizing the Panel inside the Editor, the buttons align correctly to the bottom left side. The Panel was authored in a 1024x768 screen in the editor.
Now, when I am loading the layout into my app which has screen sizes like 1280x800, 1280x1024 etc.. (standard and wide resolutions), the panel correctly resizes, but the buttons inside won't align in the panel itself!
