A problem placing button covers on Filemaker layout tabs

I've got a problem that keeps popping us as I work on redesigning some of my layouts using FileMaker Tabs. I design the layouts on a Mac and put colored FileMaker buttons with the title of the tab in them over the active title tab to help the user identify just which tab they are in.

I then move the files over to my Windows Server 2003 machine to test them out there and I find a lot of the tab covers no longer cover the tabs so I adjust them there adding a pixel or two to their width and maybe move them over side to side to get them to line up again.

I then go back to Mac and some of the tab cover buttons I just "tuned up" are out of place there while others are okay.

( See JPG screenshot )

What is going on difference wise between the two platforms that these layout objects fall in different locations and is there anything I can take into consideration to avoid or minimize the problem?
