Save layout of tables in Visual Query Builder

I've added some tables to a query in the Visual Query Builder and have laid them out in a way thatmakes sense to me. I can save the query for future use. Perfect.

However, when I close and re-open the query the tables are never displayed in the correct order and positions according to where I origionally laid them out in the Query Builder. So each time I open the query I have to re-arrange all the tables! That's quite a pain and a time waster... Is there a way to save the position of each of the tables in a query when I exit the Visual Query Builder so that when I re-open the query the origional table layout that I created is retained?

In fact, each time I EXECUTE a query from that Visual Query Builder the tables get automatically re-arranged! So all the time I spent arranging them is wasted! I can't work like that...

How do I prevent FlySpeed from rearranging the tables all the time?

After upgrading to version 3.0.0.3 the layout is not saved anymore.
Any tips why is this?

Hello,

This isn't something I can reproduce here.

Please explain your problem in detail. Does it happen on all queries or only on some of them? If there are some specific queries, please send them to me. What is your database server, connection method? (a screenshot of your Connection Properties dialog could be helpful.

Also we can establish a remote support session so you will demonstrate the problem. Just download the Quick Support module, and send a support request to support@activedbsoft.com letting us know the convenient time for you.

Hi, 
sorry for the 'no-detail-comment' above.
After the second restart - following the version update - the table layouts are saved correctly. Anyway thanks for your response.

An issue why man can not see the tables in the correct layout:
Create a query, make layout, save the query. OK, layout is there.
Rename the query from the context menu (not save as! not in windows! - inside FlySpeed), open it and no layout - the layout file doesn't gets renamed.
