Refine them by using the values of the buttons>
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,BUTTON1,10,10,200,23
change the first two numbers, they are the TOP and LEFT position. Make sure all the buttons you want to line up have either the same TOP number or LEFT number depending on if you want to line up your buttons from up-down or left-right. |

I'd recommend losing the Dialog Designer and
get your hands in the actual code to figure out
how/where this stuff works... 
| Code: |
rem -- X is pixels horizontally from the left,
rem -- Y is pixels vertically from the top.
rem -- These are are all 30 x 20 pixels in size.
rem -- Each row start at (X) 5 and each button is
rem -- located 35 pixels farther to the right than
rem -- the last one, to allow 5 pixels space between...
rem -- The four numbers for each button are:
rem -- upper left (Y), upper left (X), width, height
DIALOG CREATE,Test,-1,0,145,80
rem -- Row 1, all start at (Y) 5 --
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B01,5,5,30,20
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B02,5,40,30,20
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B03,5,75,30,20
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B04,5,110,30,20
rem -- Row 2, all start at (Y) 30 --
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B05,30,5,30,20
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B06,30,40,30,20
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B07,30,75,30,20
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B08,30,110,30,20
rem -- Row 3, all start at (Y) 55 --
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B09,55,5,30,20
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B10,55,40,30,20
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B11,55,75,30,20
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,B12,55,110,30,20
DIALOG SHOW
WAIT EVENT
EXIT

| Have you tried to use the "Snap to grid" feature of Dialog Designer? |
