Magically resizing User Controls - why???

Hi all,

I have searched the forums and found this question pondered since vs 2003.  But while there are many questions, I couldn'd find one that had an answer (and I really hope that in the many versions since then, it has been fixed...)

I am using VS 2010 and C#

To reproduce:

• create a form and put a tabpage on it. 

1. Create a user control
2. Add a label and a text box
3. save it

• On your form, add this new control
• Note the size of the control
• Save and close the form.
• Open it again.
• If you check (and I haven't missed any steps), the control should have grown in size by a couple of pixels.  And it's location may also have changed by a couple.

Has this problem been fixed? If so, what do I need to do?

Thanks,

me
