[AddOn] BetterAlign - Make your Interfaces more symmetrical!

[Ike 20]

Greetings,

I've been working on improving one of my favorite Addons ever, Align. While the default version is pretty helpful to place your frames in a very precise manner, I've always found it difficult to use when trying to do so in a more fine-grained way while using a high grid resolution. Additionally, I've always found it unnecessarily clunky the way you have to disable and re-enable the grid, in order to change its size. To help with that, I've implemented the ability to add what I very creatively call "helper bars". These are symmetrically mirrored lines (they come always in pairs of 2) that you can drag across your screen both horizontally and vertically. Combined with a more fine-grained way of changing the resolution of the default Align grid, this allows you to very easily sketch out where you want to place your UI elements.

 

TL;DR: watch this video where I very quickly set up some frames in my UI using BetterAlign:

I hope this helps you out!

This is great, wish I had it before I did my UI with the normal align

I was finally able to move that target frame that one nanometre to the right.

It feels amazing, doesn't it?
