Equalizing the space between controls in the Form painter

If you have a series of controls and the spacing is fine between two of them but the spacing is wrong for the rest, you can easily equalize the spacing around all the controls.

StepsTo equalize the space between controls in the Form painter:

  1. Select the two controls whose spacing is correct.

    To do this, click one control, then press Ctrl and click the second control.

  2. Select the other controls whose spacing you want to have the same as the first two controls by pressing Ctrl and clicking.

  3. Use the Layout drop-down toolbar in the PainterBar, or select Format>Space from the menu bar.

  4. Select the dimension whose spacing you want to equalize.

    For example, to equalize the vertical spacing of the controls, click the Space V button in the Layout drop-down toolbar or select the second choice in the cascading menu.
