Overview
The advanced interface checker is a tool that allows you to improve the layout of controls in the different windows of the application.
The advanced interface checker suggests applying Windows layout rules to the current window or to the selected controls. These rules include alignment of controls, ability to match button sizes, etc.
How to?
To use the advanced interface checker:
  1. Select (if necessary) the controls whose position, size or alignment must be modified.
  2. Open the advanced interface checker. To do so, go to the "Alignment" tab, "Other alignments" group, and click "Interface checker",
  3. When started, the interface checker analyzes the window (or the selection of controls) and establishes "Groups of controls" according to their type, position, etc.
    For each "group of controls", the checker proposes to apply the rules that are not complied with. The relevant controls (or groups of controls) are bordered by a colored line.
Several options are available:
  • Apply: The suggested changes are applied to the window. The interface checker goes to the next rule.
  • Ignore: No changes are applied. The next rule is proposed.
  • Reset: Undoes the changes previously applied.
  • Close: The suggested rule is not applied. The window remains as it is and the interface checker is closed.
  • Cancel: All suggestions applied are canceled. The interface checker is closed. The window is displayed in its initial status (before the interface checker is started).
Minimum version required
  • Version 9
