Overview
To create modern interfaces, you need to increase spacing between the controls in your windows or pages. With WINDEV, WEBDEV and WINDEV Mobile, simply indicate the desired spacing and the controls will move automatically.
New in version 2025
WEBDEV - Server code This feature is now available for WEBDEV websites.
How to?
To increase the space between controls:
  1. Select the desired controls.
  2. On the "Alignment" tab, in the "Other alignments" group, expand "Enlarge Space out" and select "Space out selection".
  3. In the window that appears, adjust the settings to increase the space between the selected controls:
    You can:
    • Specify the horizontal and/or vertical spacing value. Click to change both values simultaneously.
    • Specify the desired tolerance, if necessary. Tolerance allows you to accurately detect controls to be spaced out, even if they overlap or are not aligned properly.
    The option allows you to see changes in real time in the window.
  4. Validate. The settings are applied to the selected controls.
Remarks:
  • Spacing is added to the right and to the bottom.
  • Bear in mind that the window is not resized.
Example:
  • Initial selection:
  • Spaced out selection:
Minimum version required
