Dead area if control is not placed in upper left corner.

I was adding the control to a Managed C++ form, and
if I didn't place the control in the upper left
corner (e.g. in the middle of the form) there would
be an area of dead space between the edge of the
control and the editable area. The dead space was
just background colored pixels. The dead space
appeared at the top (if the control wasn't at the
top) and/or on the left (if the control wasn't
against the left edge). The size of the dead space
was equal to the distance from the control to the
edge of the form!

I noticed this too...It was an easy workaround to just put
the control into a panel instead of directly on the form.
That way it can be at the upper left corner of the panel,
so no dead space, but you can put the panel wherever you
need it.
