Thank you, I'll take a look, for the time being I'm using a different 
approach: I use (almost) the full width of the screen but not the full 
height, then at runtime I just resize the form, filling the extra space 
using the anchors of some components that can be resized vertically.

Bye


> package accordingly. It allows you to scroll the form in the editor window.
