When attaching an unknown control XRC makes a panel to insert in the 
place the unknown control is supposed to be, and then reparents the 
unknown so it's parent is that panel.  If your control is not showing up 
at the right place then my guess is that the reparent operation is not 
succeeding.  Please let us know which platform and version you are using.
