And Peter,
Let's not forget:
You click a down arrow to make objects move up.
You click an up arrow to make objects move down.
You click an up arrow to make objects move right.
You click an up arrow to make objects wider.
You adjust the type size on the last panel but
you adjust the leading on the first panel.
The IDE is long overdue for an extensive overhaul. I hope this will
be done BEFORE the next re-branding.

Livecode is a great tool but the IDE is full of user interface
weirdnesses as far as I'm concerned. There are three different
Find/Replace dialogs and you're never sure which one will pop up
when you press command-F. The File menu contents are completely
different depending on which window is active. The message box
appears and disappears at what seem to be completely random
intervals. How nice would it be to have an Application Browser
option to list stacks, not cards, in alphabetical order.
You get used to all that stuff over time but it can be a nightmare
for new users (at least it was for me).
