Hi!

That's not the reason I think. If I don't use a derived ControlDesigner for
the Control, it works this way. The SelectionGrabs are drawn, although the
added controls are docked left. But if I define a ControlDesigner for the
Control, they are not. The Control has the Appearance like it was in
RunTime. The Grid isn't drawn anymore also. I can select the added controls
but no SelectionGrabs. Perhaps adding a ControlDesigner to the Control puts
it to "Runtime" State?

Thanx
