Form Designer (TFormDesigner) is a component for Delphi and C++ Builder. It allows you to move all types of controls on a form and change their size at runtime. The form and behaviour of the edited controls completely confirms to the specifications of the standard form designer, which comes with the Delphi and C++ Builder IDE. TFormDesigner puts no additional demands to the form and no special preparation of the form needed, all you need to do is place the component on a form and activate it in runtime. Form Designer looks and works exactly like the standard IDE's form designer. It does not use any external hook DLLs and does not require specially prepared forms.
