Getting messed up window from MaxGui Tut. example

As you can see, if everything posts correctly,the little checkbox example window produced by this example tut. is messed up. Plus if I resize the window it stretches the position of the check boxes all over the place. I don't understand why.

Edit: ok don't know how to post an image or code block....here's link for image.

Import MaxGUI.Drivers

Local MyWindow:TGadget = CreateWindow("Checkbox Button Example", 200, 200, 320, 240)

Local Label0:TGadget = CreateLabel("Select the Product you wish to buy", 80, 10, 300, 20, MyWindow)
Local BlitzMax:TGadget=CreateButton("Blitzmax $80",120,40,100,20, MyWindow,BUTTON_CHECKBOX)

Local BlitzPlus:TGadget=CreateButton("I am a registered Blitzplus owner",80,80,200,20, MyWindow, BUTTON_CHECKBOX)

Local Total:TGadget=CreateLabel("Total in Basket $",60,110,300,20, MyWindow)
Local Amount:Int

Repeat
WaitEvent()

End Select
If ButtonState(BlitzMax)=True Amount=80

is it that, what you are looking for?

Local BlitzMax:TGadget=CreateButton("Blitzmax $80",120,40,100,20, MyWindow,BUTTON_CHECKBOX)

SetGadgetLayout BlitzMax , 1,1,0,0

I'm trying to understand why the code above is not behaving as the tutorial says it will. It's from the "The MaxGUI Beginner Tutorial Series"
part 3.

The gadgets do what they are told to do. But you have to tell them all how to react on resizing. If you want to keep them on the left side , always use 1,0,1,0. Normaly you would pack buttons in a frame and this frame get 1,0,1,0.




and normaly such parameter setting windows dont get the prpoerty to be sized!!!

Ok. The SetGadgetLayout was what I was looking for. I needed SetGadgetLayout MyGadget, 1,1,1,0 to keep them stationary. Thanks for the help.
