When I add a new element (text box usually) to Layouts using the Designer wizard by dragging it in or pasting it in, it starts at the bottom of the form. I'm working on some long forms, often near the top and this really slows me down. Am I missing something that would make this process easier for me?
Thanks,
Mike
BTW - I'm really enjoying working in version 5.

Hi Mike,
Two suggestions:
+ the obvious one is to add elements in the order they will be displayed as far as possible, but that's not very helpful
+ second use Containers to break the inputs into blocks. Containers can be collapsed and expanded so that you can drop directly into the section of the form you are working with. If it's a long form then Fieldset containers may well be helpful to the user too, but plain vanilla invisible ones will help with the build.
Note that you can copy and paste elements between containers so that they can be added to an existing form with only a small amount of hassle.
