Hi all,
I browsed the forum but couldn't find a solution. Maybe it*s just a carbon bug...
In my skin I want to have some elements positioned relative to the bottom of the window, so that these elements are always visible no matter of the height of the window. When I set a position in the skin editor it appears that the X and Y values are always counted from top left.

Relative Position of Elements (from bottom)
yes, that's what I learned now. Does the "canvas" size matter in the skin editor at all?
Here's a sample of my new, very, very simple skin:

I thing most people use either the mouse and scroll wheel or fingers on a touch screen, so I don*t use control bottoms any longer.

Hi Oli,
the canvas is like a "design-help" to arrange your items in your desired base-layout. With the anchor you define where "to lock" the item if any changes are done due to size changes.
The skin depends on your "clients". For our purpose, with a large quantity of older viewers I heard often they mentioned the nice photo... for the younger generation a panorama or virtual tour is self-explaining. So I add the skin as a hint for unexperienced user. To keep the pano-window free I added a margin to the bottom and place the skin-elements there. If they tap a button the reaction is: oh, there is something moving .
