The new alignment tool in Studio SP1 has certainly attracted a lot of attention, some good, some not so good… and some where learning a few little tricks might go a long way towards improving the experience of working with it. As with all software releases, the features around this tool will be continually enhanced and I expect to see more improvements later this year. But I thought it would be useful to step back a bit because I don’t think it’s that bad!
When Studio 2009 was first launched one of the first things that many users asked for was a replacement alignment tool for WinAlign. WinAlign has been around since I don’t know when, but it no longer supports the modern file formats that are supported in Studio so it has been overdue for an update for a long time.
