How to use the position and size coordinates
(The editor coordinates are a simple way to position and resize your objects on your work area in the template (canvas
Position coordinates – they have two parameters – X axis (horizontal) and Y axis (vertical)
Size coordinates – they have two parameters – W (width) and H (height).
You can enter different values in each parameter:
Percentages – this is a percentage of the canvas size or of the parent layer of the object; the size and position will change accordingly
For example – a button set to 100% relative to the canvas will be larger on a computer compared to an iPad
Units – a fixed size that does not change.
For example – if an image is positioned at 23S, it will stay there no matter how long the page or screen is
How to use the size and position parameters
Step 1
Click on the object whose position you want to change
Step 2
Click the small arrow next to the first parameter and choose percentages (%) / units (S) or both (f).
Step 3
Enter the desired size and position in the relevant fields
That’s it! Now you know everything about positions and sizes!

- For positioning, it is generally recommended to use units so the object does not move when switching between devices. For sizes, it is recommended to use percentages so the objects remain proportional to the viewing screen size.
