OK - new to forms really.
I have created a form using the wizzard and need to center this on the scren whatever resolution is being viewed.
I can not appear to overlay the menu into a pane of the layoutwizard nor get it to move with the page.
Thanks in avance for any feedback.

Do you mean that you want to display the form in a popup?

You can do this by creating a modal layer or use a dialog.
Use the 'enable form' property to convert the layer/dialog to a form and place all form elements directly on the layer/dialog.

Thank you for that information.
It was not what I was after but a pop up form would be great.
are there any instructions how to do this in WYSIWYG?

Modal Layer:
1. Drag the 'Layer' object from the toolbox to the page
2. Set the 'Mode' to 'Modal Layer'
3. Activate 'Enable form'
4. Drag form elements to the layer

Dialog:
1. Drag the 'Dialog' object from the toolbox to the page
2. Activate 'Enable form'
3. Drag form elements to the dialog

A form cannot be inside a layout grid because a form is a fixed /absolute container.
However, the layout grid itself can be a form.
