Gadget Alignment Control
The user should use AutoPlacement, using Path, Dist and Align commands for laying out forms, refer to
Form Layout
for further information.
However, certain gadgets, known as the linear gadgets, can have their centres auto-aligned approximately to aid simple layout without the user having to know about AutoPlacement concepts.
This pseudo-alignment can give sensible layout for very simple forms, but introduces small errors in all other circumstances and prevents accurate controlled layout because the user doesn’t know the offsets applied, so this is not recommended.
The default for 'layout form' is NoAlign, but for 'layout form' it is AutoAlign.
NOALIGN allows the user to switch off this pseudo-alignment and AUTOALIGN allows the user to switch it on.
