    How do i customize tile sizes on my form?

    Hi. I am trying to customize seperate tiles on my forum, some are just too large. When i try to do this to certain tiles, it selects all the tiles in that row. How can i just change certain ones and not the whole row??



    Your help is very much appreciated!!

    Click on the individual text box and drag any margin (typically from the mid- point of any side ) or press F4 to open the Property Sheet and set the width property as desired.
