Ah, okay, I  remembered this... but in Delphi I used <StdCtrls,
MyEdit> instead of <MyEdit, StdCtrls>. Right to Left, no?
Anyway... this is a "hack" not a "pure" implementation. You use the
design time of TButton (LCL) but in runtime the button will behave
differently. I think this is not a good idea (I used this hack to
extend the default components in Delphi, e.g., coloring the all
TDBGrid's lines in a project).
