I did say that fpGUI's UI Designer was simple. :)  I will also say that
the difference between Owner and Parent is highly overrated in VCL and
LCL. Yes I fully understand the difference between them in the context
of VCL and LCL. I just don't see a need for that in fpGUI, or even
VCL/LCL. So fpGUI treats Owner = Parent. I would have loved to get rid
of Owner, but unfortunately that is hardwired into TComponent (which is
a base class I use in fpGUI). So when you create a component and set the
Owner, fpGUI will automatically set the Parent for you, to match that
Owner.
