  • 0

I know I could create a base form and then inherit from and extend upon that, but that’s not really what I’m referring to.

I want to do simple things like copy a label or textbox from one tab and paste it in exactly the same co-ordinates on another tab. Does Visual Studio 2010 have any tools that make this easier (so I don’t have to manually check the Top and Left properties of every component). In general, are there some tools that make these kind of tasks easier (eg. Paste at same Left, same Top, same Right, same Bottom, same Width, same Height)?

Are there any good ideas in this area out there? Something like a GUI standards-enforcer plugin or tool that can work with or within Visual Studio 2010.

    It appears Visual Studio 2010 doesn’t have any built-in tools/methods to make this easier (as far as I know). Perhaps the smart thing is to not waste too much time looking for shortcuts and just check the coordinates. It’ll probably ward off dementia better than the using the desired IDE plugin/tool.
