Gadget Alignment Control

Certain gadgets, known as the linear gadgets, have their centers auto-aligned approximately to aid simple layout without the user having to know about PATH and ALIGN concepts.

This pseudo-alignment gives sensible layout for simple forms, but introduces small errors in all other circumstances and prevents accurate controlled layout because the user doesn’t know the offsets applied. The NOALIGN keyword allows you to switch off this pseudo alignment.

NOALIGN is now the recommended setting for forms of any complexity, and is explained in more detail in Form Layout.
