Form Design toolbar
Open in Design Mode
Opens the current form in design mode (to edit the
form rather than entering data into it).
Automatic Control Focus
If activated, focus is set to the first form control.
Position and Size
Launches the Position and Size dialog box, allowing
you to specify both by typing in precise values,
rather than dragging the control. You can also lock
the size or position, so they do not get changed
accidentally. For some controls, you can rotate and
set the slant and corner radius.
Change Anchor
Just as with a frame, any form control can be
anchored to page, paragraph or character and also
anchored as a character (meaning that it behaves
like any other character on the page).
Alignment
The Alignment button is disabled unless the control
is anchored as a character. You can align a control in
different ways, for example so the top of the control
lines up with the top of the text or the bottom lines
up with the bottom of the text.
Display Grid
Displays a grid of dots on the page, to help you line
up controls.
Snap to Grid
When a control is brought close to a grid point or
line, it will snap to the grid. This makes it is easier to
line up controls.
Guides when Moving
When a control is being moved, lines extend from the
control horizontally and vertically to help you
position it accurately.
