You add a Container control, place it where you want andlmove the RadioButtons, then you add the new set in another Container control?
If you have to do another time (change the RadioButtons location) you only have to move the ContainerControls… instead of selecting them one by one, then move them (once per luck, many times if the new location does not please you :wink:
