I have found through various testing over time that the most
likely candidates for bugs is Windows itself =)
I *might* be Win32Lib but I have serious doubts about it. If I
have the time I will look into this further...

I am unclear about your request. Mainly because (unless I am mis-
understanding you) that functionality is already included in Geometry.
==========
Button1
Button2
(Make Button1 and Button2 50 pixels wide, 25 pixels high, and place
Button2 5 pixels right of Button1)
manage( GMID, Button1, {0,5}, {0,5}, {Button1,50}, {Button1,25} )
manage( GMID, Button2, {Button1,5}, {0,5}, {Button2,50}, {Button2,25} )
==========
Is this what you wanted? If so read up about sticky sides and such
in Geometry.htm. If this isnt what you needed please be more
specific...

Ahh, maybe thats it. From the include it looks like you have an older
library. Go to the recent contributions page and search for my
xControls library. It has updated routines and some basic help files to
get you started.
On the second point (the red horizontal belt). I bet I know what that
is. List boxes define their own height by default. They set the height
in steps so only whole lines of text will fit within the client area.
To fix this, add the LBS_NOINTEGRALHEIGHT style on creation.

Specifies that the size of the list box is exactly the size specified by
the application when it created the list box. Normally, Windows sizes a
list box so that the list box does not display partial items.
