I'll check it.

It doesn't. It seems the menu is considered as a part of the frame so its 
added transparently when the SetBounds is called.

The original large height wasn't large enough to show two rows. But I don't 
have encountered a computer that even fills the component bar. Although by 
resizing it I saw that the components simply disappear, which I think isn't 
a good idea. I believe the best would be to scroll (like in Delphi - ideally 
they would fill the available horizontal/vertical space and scroll for the 
rest) or at least have a visual clue that there are more components.

Initially I thought this, but the problem is that the real components are 
aligned so their sizes mean nothing.

They make Lazarus look better now at least :-).
