Thanks for the good feedback. It took me a while to wrap my brain
around sizers when I first started using them; now I hate working
without them!
Also, I wanted to mention that our visual Class Designer has another
helpful feature: you can right-click control to bring up a context
menu. One of the choices is 'Edit Sizer Settings...', which brings up
a dialog with all the relevant settings in one place. As you change
them in the dialog, the design surface updates so that you can see
the effect of your changes before you commit them. If you don't like
your changes, click 'Cancel' and things return to the way they were
before you started.
