I think this might be missing from the PI control definitions:

This makes it so that when you set the left/top/right/bottom fields in
the PI it resizes the control rather than move it (if unchecked, setting
the left of the control in the PI will move it to that left position; if
checked, setting the left of the control will set the width
appropriately so left and right are as specified).
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
