6 Lay Out a GUIDE GUI
distances are relative to the parent figure, panel, or button group. All
values are giv en in pix e ls. Rulers also display pix els.
If you select a single component and move it, the first two elements of the
position vector (distance from left, distance from bottom) are updated as you
move the com ponent. If you resize the component, the last two elements of
the position vector (width, height) are updated as you change the size. The
first two elements may also change if you resize the component such that the
position of its lower left corner changes. If no com pone nts are selected, the
position vector is that of the figure.
For more information, see “Use Coordinate Readouts” on page 6-83.
Add a Component to a Panel or Button Group
To add a com ponent to a panel or button group, select the component in the
component palette then move the cursor over the desired panel or button
group. The position of the cursor determines the component’s parent.
