Help with positioning in XML

[Guest AngelOfRage]

HI, im trying to have a couple of items at the top of the screen so am just using the valign="top" tag then i want a couple of items at the bottom using the valign="bottom" tag, but the question is how to i use a gap or break so that the "bottom" items are about 10pix from the bottom, leaving a gap?

Em ... I'm pretty sure that if you have an e200 then you can use the orange spacer plugin, although, I've never used it myself, so dunno how to configure it! :oops:

You could always just make you bottom plugin 10 pixels bigger than you need, and leave a 10 pixel space under the items in the plugin?? i.e. if your last plugin is the MRU with 32x32 icons, then make the plugin height 42, and set y="0" value, so there is 10 pixels empty space at the bottom of the plugin.

Does that help? :shock:

You can use any plugin as a spacer....just use a plugin and define the height, but dont use any tags.

Best to use a non-selectable plugin like carrier:

<plugin file="sysplug.dll" clsid="{E09043DF-510E-4841-B652-388316977A7A}" height="160">


</plugin>

Also bear in mind that the "valign" only lines up at the top or bottom of the plugin itself- not the whole screen.
