Here control means both controls and indicators.
When replacing a control, some properties of the replaced control are inherited by the new control, e.g., label, caption, etc. and some are not, the most critical for me being the SIZE property (and the POSITION which is not in the Properties dialog). So while property nodes, event cases, etc. which depend on the label are still intact after the replace, I still must fix SIZE and POSITION (and other properties) afterwards.
Idea: When replacing a control, the set of properties in the intersection of the old control and new should all be inherited by the new control. Thus when replacing a control with the same type, ALL properties would be inherited. The exception to this would of course be when replacing a control with one that is a strict type definition.
