Text Box Moving When Editing

Post by PixelatedDS »

Whenever I edit a text box, the text box shifts down the image a little bit. When I move the box back up or even higher up than it was before and then I try again to edit the text box, the text box reverts back to the lower position. Does anyone know why this could be?

Thank you very much. I appreciate your time and advice.

If you're talking about what I think you are, it's a "feature" of Windows. When a program creates a new dialogue without specifying a location it'll just start it down and to the right a few pixels of the previous dialog.This allows error dialogs, message boxes, new windows, to not overlap each other other. If they did overlap they might hide each other.

Ok thanks. So is there any remedy or is there nothing to be done?
