Yeah I thought about that and I can see situations where it could be useful like that, but it also means if you want it to grow in a certain direction you have to re-anchor it every time its moved. From the coders point of view I set the anchor point a certain way on purpose, I don't want the game changing them. Its kind of like saying the game knows better than I do so it will just do whatever it wants and re-anchor my controls however it thinks is best, which seems wrong to me.
Anyhow re-anchoring the controls at every OnMoveStop works, I was just curious if it had always done this & I never noticed.
