Nice way to align controls (like vb.net does)

[|2eM!x]

If you are making a program, in which you want to user to be able to change the interface after runtime..this simple code might be of use:

Add two lines to your project, line 1 and line 2

Private Sub Cmd_MouseMove(Index As Integer, Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Static iX   As Single
Static iY   As Single
 
    If (Button = vbLeftButton) Then
        X = (X - iX)
        Y = (Y - iY)
 
        Cmd(Index).Move (Cmd(Index).Left + X), _
                      (Cmd(Index).Top + Y)
    With Line1
        .X1 = 0
        .X2 = Me.Left + Me.Width
        .Y1 = Cmd(Index).Top
        .Y2 = Cmd(Index).Top
    End With
    With Line2
        .X1 = Cmd(Index).Left + Cmd(Index).Width
        .X2 = .X1
        .Y1 = 0
        .Y2 = Me.Top + Me.Height
    End With
      Else
        iX = X
        iY = Y
    End If
End Sub

This way, while the users moves the button, the lines will show them whats aligned or not

Its pretty easy, but really nice
