Is there a way to always display the coordinates on the design screen? Sure would make lining things up between screens a lot easier.

Thanks

The coordinates of what?

Do you meant the top/left properties of widgets? They are displayed in the properties window. You could do something like search the widget list for +position and then click each widget to see it's top/left.

Also, in case you haven't seen it... the when you have multiple widgets selected, and right-click you get options to line things up by aligning their top/left/bottom/right with each other. The steps to use this are something like this:

1. left-click one widget that's misaligned
2. While holding the control key, left-click another widget (now both widgets are selected)
3. Repeat that last step, holding control and clicking all of the widgets you want to align. Make sure the one that you want things to line-up with is the last widget you select.
4. Right-click and choose "Align Lefts" (or tops, rights, etc... whichever property you want to line up with.)

There are also options to do things like equally space widgets, etc. This is often much simpler/faster than manually setting the top/left properties.
