Hello, Fabrizio!

The horizontal + vertical justify radio buttons could possibly be improved by 
showing the alignment visually as it's done in [1] by using a 3 x 3 radio 
button matrix. It can also reduce the number of clicks to 1 to adjust hor + 
vert simultaneously.

The timestamp is not human readable. It seems strange to me to dump it as 
hex-number on the UI. (WTF!?)

The Component/Chip Name thingy seems to be lost a bit on the lower left. Maybe 
some sorting of the elements based on the usage/setup procedure as well as 
logic dependency could do some good.

Regards,

Clemens
