Yes, I read the description in the User Guide. Here's what I did. I selected a control that is over on the right of the card and set it to Scale, then clicked the grey bar in the link area to create an absolute link to the right edge of the window. Then I resized the width of the window. The control wasn't scaled and it didn't move relative to the right edge of the window, it was just cut off by the new right edge of the window. So I guess I'm not sure what else I need to do.

What you're seeing are just the default settings, but they haven't been applied to your controls yet. You need to go through every control and specifically set geometry on it. It isn't done automatically.

There's an explanation of how the geometry manager works in the User Guide.
