* Closes <https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/7353>
Currently `ui.put` moves the cursor after the placed widget. In my
opinion that is a bit unexpected and counterproductive in most cases
where `ui.put` makes sense.
The following example breakes with the current behavior and looks right
with my change:
```rs
ui.horizontal(|ui| {
let custom_button_id = Id::new("custom_button");
let response = Button::new((
Atom::custom(custom_button_id, Vec2::splat(18.0)),
"Look at my mini button!",
))
.atom_ui(ui);
if let Some(rect) = response.rect(custom_button_id) {
ui.put(rect, Button::new("🔎").frame_when_inactive(false));
}
let custom_button_id = Id::new("custom_button");
let response = Button::new((
Atom::custom(custom_button_id, Vec2::splat(18.0)),
"Look at my mini button!",
))
.atom_ui(ui);
if let Some(rect) = response.rect(custom_button_id) {
ui.put(rect, Button::new("🔎").frame_when_inactive(false));
}
});
ui.add_space(10.0);
let response = ui.button("Notifications");
ui.put(
Rect::from_center_size(response.rect.right_top(), Vec2::splat(12.0)),
|ui: &mut Ui| {
Frame::new()
.fill(Color32::RED)
.corner_radius(10.0)
.show(ui, |ui| {
ui.label(RichText::new("11").size(8.0).color(Color32::WHITE));
}).response
},
);
ui.button("Some other button");
```

I had a look at reruns source code and there are no uses of `ui.put`
that would break with this change (very little usages in general).
## Alternatives
Instead of a breaking change we could of course instead introduce a new
metheod (e.g. `Ui::place`?).
