Are this the buttons for File, Edit, View, etc or the Close, Minimize, Help, etc buttons?

Are you moving them manually (by using the mouse and dragging) or setting the position by changing horiz/vert offsets? I've had them jump before when I tried dragging them.

I usually do both... drag first then do small movements with the numerical offsets to place them accurately. Never really had a problem.

I just started setting them all by using offset positions and they never jumped anymore.

Click on the button in the left pane (button 0, button1, etc) and look for position in the right pane. It will have a horizontal value and a vertical value.

Listen to Pictoratus. If you position the buttons by dragging them with the mouse, they will revert back to the original position. To align them properly you need to set the horizontal and vertical coordinates on the Alignment section on the right tree. Remember to do this for each button that the skin has.

Thanks, A. Couldn't, for the life of me, remember exactly what it was called. Position was as close as I could remember.
