One thing I've found making custom controls from groups in LC is a bit
non-obvious but makes sense one you use it:
on resizeControl
-- do stuff
-- then:
set the boundingRect of me to the rect of me
end resizeControl
The boundingRect property determines the working space of the group,
initially added so you could define the amount of scrolling area a group
may have independently of its internal controls.
During resize operations, in which I'm moving stuff around inside of a
group while the group is being resized, I find it helps keep things from
getting squirrelly.
Seems silly to have that extra line, but in many cases here it's made
the interaction beautifully smooth.
Also, as Scott noted, you'll want to have the margins set to 0.
