Yes, I know; for longterm, it would be nice to use the tool builder for this.

Besides tool builder, minimal window (or morph) extent is not working properly in our TableLayoutPolicy and ProportionalLayoutPolicy at the moment. That's a biggie to be fixed after the 5.3 release.

You mean ArchiveViewer? Good reference :-) The question is, would anyone mind if we dropoed the current button alignment in the PB?

PreferenceBrowser is not built with the tool builder, and have some quirks that are fixed (at least partly) in other tools.  Look at the Zip tool that have scaling buttons and a minimum size.
