Hi, I'm sorry but I can't figure on how to use this to position skins? Can you explain how one would do it??

For example: 

If I had a clock that I wanted in the center of my monitor, I could use the Centering tool to line it up exactly in the center. 

If  I had one skin that I wanted in a specific relative location, I could use the Crosshair tool to find the x,y of the first widget and then dial in the exact location in which the other widget should go.

For an artistic skin, I assume that one could use the dividing tools to arrange their widgets according to the "rule of thirds" or similarly.

In reality, I expect that this skin will be quite lackluster unless there's a specific situation that requires it.

BTW if you feel like a challenge than u could improve ur skin even further by adding input text functionality so you can type in what ever dimensions you want on the go, without editing the ini file

Thanks!

An alignment system is one of my skins need, and I wanted to start creating it at a moment… need it to set my default windows position principally, but can be useful for skins location too (I always prefer to use the rainmeter skin manager to do this ^^ ).

I will test it ; P
