Relative widget positioniong doesn't work for Form Layout

If you specify any component at Layout->Constraints->...->control it inserts it in the code on form "ComponentType {component}" and brokes the source.
For example it gererates:
"button2LData.top = new FormAttachment(Button {button1}, 14, SWT.BOTTOM);"
but must be:
"button2LData.top = new FormAttachment(button1, 14, SWT.BOTTOM);"

Hi Sap,

I have fixed this bug and put a new jigloo.jar here:
http://cloudgarden1.com/jigloo.jar

Please download it and replace (after backing it up) the jigloo.jar file in
plugins/com.cloudgarden.jigloo_462

Then restart Eclipse.

I'd appreciate any feedback you have on this patch. Thanks.

I was optimistic that the jar file would fix what seemed to be the same problem for me. At first, it appeared to. The location was no longer shown as 0,0. The location would appropriately change when I moved the control.

But I continue to have a host of related problems. Often, when I place a control, it jumps up to position 0,0. Is pretty annoying, but tolerable when I can move it to the right place-- and often I cannot (sometimes I can).

I have also experienced not being able to select and edit controls after they have been placed, selected and edited many times.

The frustrating part is that I will be nearly done with a window design when this happens.

Jigloo has wasted a many hours of my time today. I recall it being fairly buggy a few years ago, but hope that maybe now, after years of experience, it is beginning to mature into a useful tool.
