Zoom in (increase) the Form editing area

[Peter2]

When I design / modify my form and want to align some controls (same baseline, same distance) I miss a "zoom feature" to display the form at maximum size. It would be easier to make the arrangement-fine-tuning with the mouse.

Any idea to realize it?

I don't think zooming will be possible, but Own can correct me if I'm wrong.
But if you want to align multiple controls, you can select them all & then set their top or left position in the properties panel.
You can also use the arrow key on the keyboard to nudge or fine turn their position.

Maybe I found a tool which helps (not yet tested):

Hi, one of my former colleagues pointed me to use a notepad window as a "ruler" to check if all the controls are "in line". But you should deactivate Windows Visual Styles before.
