Moving and Aligning Controls
In the user control editor or user module editor, you can move or align copied controls.
Selecting Controls
In the user control editor or user module editor, controls are selected in the same way as in the
component editor. Click a control to select it, or press <Ctrl> + click to select multiple controls. If
you use <Ctrl> + click on a selected control, it will cancel that control's selection. If you position the
mouse in an empty location in the user control editor or user module editor and start dragging from
there, a frame will be displayed as the pointer moves. All controls enclosed by that frame will be
selected.
A red frame will be drawn around the selected controls.
Moving Controls
Move selected controls by dragging them or by pressing the arrow keys on your keyboard. When
you select multiple controls using <Shift> + click, you can move all of them at the same time.
Dragging
When grid is ON, the upper left of the dragged controls will automatically align with the grid. When
dragging, the coordinates displayed here refer to the upper left corner of the object being
dragged. The "Distance to Right" and "Distance to Bottom" are displayed in pixel units, using the
upper-left of the window as a reference point.
When multiple controls are selected and dragged, the coordinates are those of the upper-left
corner of the control where the mouse is aligned.
Arrow Keys
When the grid is ON, the arrow keys move controls a grid unit at a time. When the grid is OFF,
controls are moved one pixel at a time.
Alignment
You can align controls using the following alignment buttons on the edit palette: [Align Left], [Align
Right], [Align To Top], [Align To Bottom], [Align Horizontally], [Align Vertically], [Horizontal/Center
Align], and [Vertical/Center Align].
You can only use the [Align Horizontally] or [Align Vertically] buttons when three or more controls
are selected.
