Hello,
I'm trying to build a wizard form and when I try to move controls it will snap back to it's original location. This seems to only affect wizard forms. I reviewed this post, viewtopic.php?t=13432, but it doesn't help. This happens in my project, a new project or just starting a new wizard form. Any way to fix it so I can drag and drop to position the controls or is this by design on wizards?

Thanks,

Please verify that the controls you are attempting to move have the Dock property set to none or have the Locked property set to true.

Press the Esc button and see if things return to normal.

Are you working with PowerShell Studio on your main screen or a secondary?
Does the behavior set persist if you restart the software?

Well funny thing is it isn't happening anymore. Pretty sure the dock properties and locked properties weren't configured with those settings as I did not change them. I was in the office working off a secondary screen though when it was happening. I did restart the application a couple times but it persisted.

When I got home I worked on my project some more but was not attached to an additional monitor and that's when it first started working. I'm back to multi monitor setup right, but different setup than in office, and can't recreate the issue. Weird but guessing this may be related to secondary monitor? When I'm back in the office I'll see if I can recreate it.

It was an issue with my office setup. Think it may have been because i use my laptop screen in the office and it was set to custom scaling. When I changed it back to 100% the controls stopped snapping back. Sorry for the trouble.
