In SkinStudio I am trying to re-position the Max, Min, Close and Help buttons, in an OS skin. I am trying to reposition two of them onto the left frame, and a third onto the bottom frame. My problem is that SkinStudio keeps loosing the buttons in the editor--though the code for the buttons in question is still there.

This may be unrelated, but I also noticed that when I try to get my skin to refresh, I get a dialog saying "Unable to write to" and nothing else. I renamed the default skin and am double clicking the elements in order to conveniently edit the graphic files--maybe this is the problem?

Also, when I make skin refresh changes, the Undo option in the edit menu is always unavailable.

I am using Windows XP Professional (2002 SP2) on a 950+- MHz AMD Duron processor, 512 Mb RAM (480 available after bootup), 80 Gig HD.

Any suggestions?
