My program creates some rectangular shapes. The user will need to be able to move these shapes to appropriate positions.
Ideally, I'd like a way to facilitate these coming together neatly, no gaps or overlaps etc.
Obviously not what Excel was built for, but it would be great if this was possible.
I'm thinking two things:
Unlikely - Some way to limit movement to snap as if on a grid, rather than being able to drag to any position.
More likely and perhaps a long bit of coding:
For each shape
Look at the top left position of the corner
If any other top left corners has similar horizontal position, then align.
Any thoughts anyone has on this would be appreciated!
