[JW Lua] Dialog scaling bug not fixed when changing the positions afterwards

Jari,

some versions ago you fixed the different scaling/positioning bug for 
dialogs on MacOS/Windows.
Today I noticed that the bug fix seem to only affect the 
scaling/positioning when creating the dialog.
If the dialog is changed on the fly afterwards, the values are still 
scaled differently (on Windows! Haven't tested MacOS).

Below is the test script which shows different positions when using 
CreateButton(x,y) compared to SetLeft(x) / SetTop(y).
Clicking on the "select" button should use the same position as before, 
but it changes.
This is how the script looks in action: https://youtu.be/gprmtghPbAs

It is relevant when I have a dialog with a "standard" and an "extended" 
version which use slightly different positions.

local str=finale.FCString()
str.LuaString="Test"
local dialog = finale.FCCustomLuaWindow()
dialog:SetTitle(str)

local static1= dialog:CreateStatic(0,0)
str.LuaString = "Test:"
static1:SetWidth(120)
static1:SetText(str)

local button = dialog:CreateButton(50, 50)
str.LuaString = "Select"
button:SetText(str)
button:SetWidth(100)

local function mycommandhandler(thecontrol)
     if thecontrol:GetControlID() ==button:GetControlID() then
         button:SetLeft(50)
         button:SetTop(50)
     end
end
dialog:RegisterHandleCommand(mycommandhandler)
dialog:CreateCancelButton()
dialog:ExecuteModal(nil)
