Using the mouse to position menu objects

Please note: If the grid feature is activated, the object will snatch back into the nearest grid position when the mouse button is released.

Using the cursor key to position menu objects

Please Note:
The size of the steps depends on the grid settings. If you want to achieve an exact pixel position for your object, the grid must be deactivated first (Menubar "Editor - Settings")

• Selecting one or more menu objects
• Using the cursor keys to move menu objects

The object moves according to the set grid spacing.

Using the cursor keys to change the size of menu objects

• Select one or more menu objects
• Press and hold the Ctrl. key
• Right cursor: increases object width
• Left cursor: reduces object width
• Cursor down: increases object height
• Cursor up: reduces object height

Doing this increases the width / height of the object in line with the set grid spacing.
