Before you start adding controls to your Power Pad, you should set the Layout Options. The Power Pad canvas has a grid that can be used to align the various controls. If desired, you can change the width and height of the grid cells.
You also have the option of whether or not you want the controls to "snap" to the grid and to show the grid on the canvas.
To access Layout Options, from the MenuBar, select Layout:Options. The Layout Options dialog will be displayed as shown:
Grid Settings ---
Snap Controls to Grid: If enabled, controls that are placed on the canvas will automatically be "snapped" or sized to fit to the closes grid coordinate.
Width: Sets the size in pixels of the width of the grid cells.
Height: Sets the size in pixels of the height of the grid cells.
Show Grid: This turns the grid display on or off.
