You can move, resize, and align form fields in numerous ways after you add a few to your form. Here are the basic techniques that you can apply to one or more fields:
- To move: Click a field and drag it to a new location. To make more precise movements, select a field and nudge it with the arrow keys. You can apply these same techniques to multiple field selections. Select multiple fields by holding down the Shift key while making your selections. The first selected field turns red, and subsequent selections are outlined in blue. Note that multiple field selections can be non-contiguous. After you’ve made your selections, release the Shift key and drag the selections to another location or nudge them with the arrow keys. When using the mouse to move multiple fields, you can constrain field movement to a horizontal or vertical direction by pressing the Shift key after you’ve started to drag the selected group of fields. To center single and multiple field selections on a page, right-click the field selection and choose Center and select Vertically, Horizontally, or Both on the Center submenu.
- To resize: Position the mouse pointer on any of the sizing handles that appear on a selected field. When the mouse pointer turns to a doubleheaded arrow, drag in the direction of the arrows to change the size of a form field. To resize a single field or multiple field selections in smaller increments, hold down the Shift key while pressing the arrow keys. You can also resize multiple fields by first right-clicking the field selection and then choosing Size and selecting Height, Width, or Both on the Size submenu. These commands resize all selected fields to the respective height, width, or both of the first selected field.
- To align: Select the field that you want other form fields to align with first and then select the fields you want to align. To align all selected fields with the respective border of the first field selected, right-click the field selection and choose Align and select Left, Right, Top, or Bottom on the Align submenu. Choosing Vertical or Horizontal from this menu aligns the selected fields along the vertical or horizontal axis of the first selected field. \.
