I am having a problem with gadgets inside of intuition that I'd like to find either a solution for, or conformation that it is a known bug. I am attempting to put gadgets inside of the border of a backdrop window (The bottom border is what I am really after, but I've tried all 4). When I set the BorderBottom,BorderTop, or BorderRight flags in the ActiavtionFlags for the gadget, nothing happens. When I set the BorderLeft flag, the left border widens out to contain HALF of the gadget and various seemingly random things happen to the rendering of the right border. I am working in HiRes mod. Anbody know what the hell is going on? I'm just about ready to give up on putting it in the border, shorten the window, and put the darn thing on the Custom Screen itself.

This is what I use: for the horizontal gadget (located on the right side): GRELWIDTH, GRELBOTTOM GADGIMMEDIATE, BOTTOMBORDER GZZGADGET, PROPGADGET for the vertical gadget (located at the bottom): GRELHEIGHT, GRELRIGHT GADGIMMEDIATE, RIGHTBORDER GZZGADGET, PROPGADGET Note that the horizontal gadget will have NEGATIVE topedge and width, while vertical gadget has NEGATIVE leftedge and height.
