Snaping/grid definition in myDesigner.

As I start to play with myDesigner more (and I may well have missed this) it would be really handy if there was a way to define a grid and/or snapping for the placement of items.  For example if I could just drag a button over to a spot on a grid and have it automatically configured to the right location/size/etc, so I wouldn't have to do that manually for each button.  Not only would it make things simpler to setup, it would also aid in keeping the look/layout consistent across scenes.

Snap to grid for what we do might be a little tricky as we need pixel placement. What we do have and that has not been activated in the designer is the ability to select a set of objects and then align them top, bottom, left, right or evenly spaced. We had that in the V5 designer and it has been on the list to reactivate in V6. Once aligned you can then group move them one or ten pixels at a time. I'll give this feature priority.

Another feature that would be handy, would be the ability to "tab" to components that are covered by another component.

Ability to "rubber band" which multi-selects objects.. Then one can move them all together. Would be awesome to group/ungroup items together.

Ability to create template cards repository or otherwise known as widgets with pre-defined items.
