No (vertical) gaps between fields

ood Day All;

As I am way new at this, these last few questions may have sounded simple........

Any way, I have designed a form using LiveCycle Desginer and one issue I am having is lining up the fields so there are no gaps. I think (but maybe not) at all the options and I have yet to find the format I am looking for. So the question is;

How does one lineup (vertical) so there are no gaps between any of the fields?

Thanks All;

That depends on whether or not you have already layed the objects on the form.

If you have, you can 'lasso' the objects and select the Layout tool to align the objects horizontally (left or right). However, I am unaware of a way to align objects vertically with no gaps. You can use the arrow keys and your visually acuity to align the objects with no vertical gaps or you can use object Layout property sheet to set the X and Y coordinates of each object.

If you are just laying out the form, consider using Edit > Copy Multiple on the tool bar. Place the first object on the form, highlight or select the object, and go to Edit > Copy Multiple to replicate the object vertically (vertical spacing set to 'touching').

Man, they are ot making things easy. I have tried the "X' and "Y" and that works. Need to play, but once you get use to the spacing, it is not to bad
