The Panel Designer automatically adjusts the size of the panel template and instruments to match your computer’s screen resolution and browser window size, so it works on all sizes no matter what. Well, except for mobile, there’s just not enough room on a mobile screen for everything. A larger iPad works great, however!
For alignment, there is an invisible grid that allows you to snap one instrument to another along the sides and at the corners. This gives you an excellent starting point for your design. Figure out which instrument you wish to be your anchor, lock it in place and space everything else from that.
See the tool descriptions below for more information on how to move and align the instruments and other elements in your panel design.
