I remember reading some time ago about a TextEdit bug...um, feature that
sometimes shifts a TextEdit item (in a dialog, for instance) up by a pixel
when you change it.
I looked through the tech notes and didn't find anything. Can anybody
provide specifics on what the prerequisite conditions are and what programmers
can do to prevent this from happening?

Powell My limited experiences with this problem lead me to believe that it only occurs when the bounding-box for the TextEdit item is too small for the specified font. Other opinions gladly accepted.
