You probably do something wrong.
 
Here both
 
Button1.AnchorParallel(akLeft, 10, Form1);
 
or
 
Button1.BorderSpacing.Left:=10;
Button1.AnchorSide[akLeft].Control:=Form1;
Button1.Anchors:=[akLeft];
 
works well.

Předmět: Re: [Lazarus] Borderspacing property not working?

Update:  Then I realized what had changed.  I attempted to clean up some of my 
other dynamically created page tabs, and problems persisted.  I ran some 
experiments, and determined the root problem.  So this problem is more properly 
expressed as:  When anchoring to Parent, border settings are ignored, 
regardless if they are set using a method (such as AnchorToNeighbour or 
AnchorParallel) or directly (by changing the BorderSpacing property).  Is this 
a known bug?  Or is it an undocumented feature?  If the latter, how do I anchor 
to a parent in a manner that respects border spacing?

I have created several dynamic controls in my form, and setting the 
BorderSpacing property produces consistently incorrect results.  Dynamically 
created controls will exhibit borders between themselves, but not to the parent 
object.  What am I doing wrong?Here is a chunk of the offending code.  for 
index := 0 to 8 do begin
    labSurface [index] := tLabel.Create (Application);
    with (labSurface [index]) do begin
      parent := tabSurface;
      Caption := LocationNames [index];
      BorderSpacing.Around := 8;
      BorderSpacing.Left := 8;
      Anchors := [akTop, akLeft];
    end;
  end;

  labSurface [0].AnchorSide [akTop].Control := labSurfaceLocation;
  labSurface [0].AnchorSide [akTop].Side := asrBottom;
  labSurface [0].AnchorSide [akLeft].Control := Parent;
  labSurface [0].AnchorSide [akLeft].Side := asrRight;
  for index := 1 to 8 do begin
    labSurface [index].AnchorSide [akTop].Control := labSurface [index - 1];
    labSurface [index].AnchorSide [akTop].Side := asrBottom;
    labSurface [index].AnchorSide [akLeft].Control := Parent;
    labSurface [index].AnchorSide [akLeft].Side := asrRight;
  end;
