Thanks Jaquelin, you are completly right. It must be fixed urgently.

IMnHO
Why this is not a real workaround Geoff...
1) I have hundreds of fields, which must move on click with effect. A 
work around in this way is impossible or would be worse than a chinese 
torture. So I had to find another work around in the past. As I said 
the bug is very old and I have reportet it before bugzilla about 5 or 6 
times. And I remmber others, which have reported it too... Why it is 
not in bugzilla...?

I would be really interested why this was not fixed in the last 1,5 
years..?
My workaround was: change all (bigger) text-controls to the size that 
you dont need scrolling... (for some of them it was not possible, 
because the text content are to big, so the ugly lines are still 
there...) Not an elegant english style,:)

A similar problem was that with the double-arrow buttons. I could not 
move/change any controls with the nudge buttons. Pls RR team imagine 
that once.!? Not moving a single control, a group of controls, no 
change in size of a single control, etc...
Now I know, thanks to Barry, that the reason is Cocktails double-arrow 
buttons. But I had this Cocktail Effekt *only* in rev. So I thought 
thats a rev problem...

Therefore finally I think:
1) anybody from RR should still read the list to see what problems are 
discussed here and actualize/check the db.
RR should also listen a bit more to these non scripters (like me). Not 
all of them are idiots, and they have to pay the same money like the 
others...
