Hi all,

A colleague of mine recently found this bug when trying to create a form for
our software. It seems that splitters do weird things to other controls that
happen to be near it.

I made a contrived class to demonstrate the bug. You can download the form
from here: http://www.distantwisdom.net/Form1.cs

Also I tested this app with the .NET 2.0 beta and the bug is still there. I
have no idea what's causing it.

I used your code and the same thing happened here. When the two numbers
were the same, grabbing the splitter was like grabbing the bottom edge of
the RichTextBox. The text box got resized but the splitter remained in the
same place.

Weird. Not sure what is causing this. I just wanted to confirm that it
happens elsewhere, too.
