Title: Align Center buttons please
Post by: thomaskilian on February 06, 2007, 06:52:37 am

Up til now I did this manually each time I updgraded: create two icons for horizontal and vertical CENTER alignment. Would it be too hard to deliver these as standard. Please :-*

Works for me...

The other alignment context menu items wouldn't hurt either...

I prefer keyboard shortcuts. I think mouse is for "users", keyboard for programmers.
And they remain active after upgrade  :)

User interface best practice is to have both...  ;)

But even I have to admit that with EA's vast functionality; creating unique, meaningful and context dependent keyboard shortcuts must tax the Sparxianss' ingenuity...  :D

If you are a *nix user, then keyboard shortcuts should be obvious:
