Group margin

Is there a way to adjust the group?  I have some grouped controls and I 
made the width of the group smaller than the width of the items and added a 
horizontal scroll bar.  The problem is that there is a several pixels 
margin on the left and right, so that the scroll bar is wider than it needs 
to be and when I scroll all the way to the left, the objects are several 
pixels too far to the right.

I tried adjusting the leftmargin, but that doesn't seem to have any 
effect.  I set it to 0, and I still have the blank space on the 
left.  Although if I set the leftmargin to -4 then it has no space on the left.

I guess I found a work-around.  But is this the way groups are supposed to 
work?  I did another test with just some boxes (no check boxes) and setting 
leftmargin to 0 accomplished the same thing.  I'm just wondering why I need 
0 in one case and -4 in another.

Thanks!
