# The Layout Menu

Adjust Size

Lay Out Horizontally

  Assigns a horizontal box layout to the currently selected widget container, or if a number of GUI elements are selected, inserts a new logical container containing the selected GUI elements and assigns a horizontal box layout to this new container.

Lay Out Vertically

  Assigns a vertical box layout to the currently selected widget container, or if a number of GUI elements are selected, inserts a new logical container containing the selected GUI elements and assigns a vertical box layout to this new container.

Lay Out In A Grid

  Assigns a grid layout to the currently selected widget container, or if a number of GUI elements are selected, inserts a new logical container containing the selected GUI elements and assigns a grid layout to this new container.

Break Layout

  Breaks the currently selected layout. Use this function if you want to add widgets or spacers to a layout or remove them.

Add Spacer

  Turns on the spacer insertion mode. Clicking on a form inserts a spacer. A context menu will pop up that lets you select whether you want a vertical or a horizontal spacer.
