Description 

Alignment 

EditAlign
Lines up selected components in relation to each other or to the form.  

Creation Order 

EditCreation Order
Specifies the order in which your application creates nonvisual components when you load the form at design time or runtime.
The list box displays only those nonvisual components on the active form, their type, and their current creation order. The default creation order is determined by the order in which you placed the nonvisual components on the form. 

Edit Tab Order 

EditTab Order
Modifies the tab order of the components on the VCL Form, or within the selected component if that component contains other components.
For example: a Form containing an edit control with the Tab property value of 0, and a button with the Tab property of 1, the edit control comes before the button when you cycle through the controls with the Tab key. The Tab Order dialog facilitates changing the values of the Tab property using the Up and Down arrows instead of explicitly having to specify values for the Tab property in the Object Inspector.... more 

Scale 

EditScale
Proportionally resizes all the components on the current form. Scaling the form repositions the components as well as resizing them.
Enter a percentage to which you want to resize the form’s components. The scaling factor must be between 25 and 400. Percentages over 100 grow the form’s components. Percentages under 100 shrink the form’s components. 

Size
