Using this test project:

[attachment=8860:acTstSlidingPanel.zip]

when I click the roll out panel, it leaves me with a ghost of the button:

Also, the caption of the button cannot be positioned in the middle or at the top.

Thank you for the project

TsRollOutPanel doesn't work with Align property, this is the reason of the problem.

I hope to improve it soon.

Thanks. I suppose you agree that it is a bug?

Yes. The Align property should not be published while not supported.

I will try to support it later.

Align seems to work somewhat (although in some cases, the button is ghosted for a moment).

However Alignment still does not work (caption will always stay at the left hand side).

Also, the placement of the button in expanded state is only correct if placement is asTop. In all cases except asTop the button should move with the panel.

The combination Align = alBottom and Placement = asTop gives a very strange behavior.

No improvement in 14.02

The problem became worse in 14.03.

I cannot get the sample project to work properly anymore.

It's a bit better in 14.04. But you can try it yourself in my sample project, by setting both Align and Placement properties to all possible combinations. You'll see that most combinations do not work OK.

A special case occurs with Align is alTop and Placement is asBottom. It seems to work, but the direction arrows point now in the wrong direction.

The Alignment property is still not honored.

I will try to make it in the v14.05

The Alignment works now

However, Placement and Align properties do not work together properly.

This is a picture with Align = alBottom and Placement = asTop:

As you can see, the DirectionArrow points the wrong way.

BUG: This is shown, when clicking on the rollout button:

[attachment=8971:Rollout2..jpg]

We get ghosting at the right hand side.

In 14.06 the ghosting is fixed

However the arrows still point the wrong way in these cases:

• Align = alTop, Placement = asBottom

[*] Align = alLeft, Placement = asRight[*]Align = alBottom, Placement = asTop[*]Align = alRight, Placement = asLeft

In other words, if the Placement is the opposite of Align, the arrow should be reversed too.

This behavior will be improved in the v14.07 at the nearest days.
