1. IDE hint
I have found it a lot easier and quicker when tring to create a bunch of
EditTexts and PushButtons in IDE,
To:
1.) just create them in the genaral area you want them in the IDE window.
(Don't worry if they not are lined up perfectly).
2.) launch your IDE program.
3.) line them up manually in the code.
As oppossed to: trying to push them around with the mouse in IDE.
Comments welcome?

For me, positioning is easy enough with the IDE. The problem I experience
and which troubles me the most is when I click on the edge of a control
to resize it and I end up moving it instead. That's very aggravating.
If I need to create a lot of a control, the Ctrl+ClickDrag works great.

i have not used new ide but how about a right click on control to show a
properties tab showing details (editable) without going into code manually.
or attempt to auto-align the selected controls when several are selected.
just something i pondered while trying to think how i might create one.

This would be a great project for some one. But like my daddy used to say,
"Sometimes you do more work trying to get out of work than actually doing
the work itself".
