objects move whne saved

[San Jose Test]

I have objects on a panel that are shifting position (up or down) when the panel is saved...   this started just after I added a drop down menu to the panel.  Here's the before and after snapshots..  the before is just after I have moved all the objects to the correct position (select all objects and move them into place with the arrow keys or with the mouse).  The "after" is an example of what I see just after saving the panel...  upon save, the objects either all move down (as in the example photo) or they all move up (the top control button landing half-way under the menu bar) ...    I actually see the objects moving as the the save is happening ....  

Strange...  

Anyone with a suggestion?

JUST BEFORE SAVE AND AFTER MOVING OBJECTS TO DESIRED LOCATION

AFTER SAVE !!

Following your instructions, I was indeed able to replicate the problem.
Note that this occurs in CVI 8.1 and 8.5.1.
I will file a corrective action request to inform CVI R&D of the behavior.
I will then inform you of what R&D has to say about the issue.

Do pardon the inconvenience. Let me know the severity of the problem so
that I may address the issue accordingly.
Have a great and safe weekend.

Here is the process I used ....
open the TT_00_UI.uir file ...
Select ALL the objects with the mouse....
Move them up or down using the arrow key ...
On the left of the screen is the project explorer list ...  right click
over the TT_00_UI.uir file ... you should get a pop up menu list.
Left click on "Save"
The objects should now move on the screen to some other position ....
however...  if they don't move, then
close the TT_00_UI.uir file so that you can't see it anymore, then go back
and open it and the objects should be in another position ....
Let me know if you can get this duplicated. Thanks for your continued help.

CVI R&D is further investigating this bug.
However, a workaround to the problem is to simply not choose the Sample Menu Bar, but rather the actual or a dummy menu bar. 

Pardon the inconvenience everyone.
