Horizontal Arrangement of Interface Designer Objects

Additional formatting functionality would be great to see in the Interface Designer.

 

First off, I want to acknowledge other submitted ideas (vote for them too!):

Both of these are great suggestions and I want to show support of them as well!

 

To take it another step further from targeted placement or drag/drop... I would also like to see new objects included in the ADD menu.  We have Groupings but I'd like to see horizontally split groupings.  Meaning, I want the ability to place two Date Inputs next to each other, or short prompts across instead of listed vertically.

 

Example:

Why this matters:  If Alteryx aspires to be a bonofied contender in the Analytic Application space (which I think it is), then we need added functionality that puts a greater emphasis on the user-experience side of things.  Because as we know, user acceptance, ease of use, and adoption all depend on a clean presentation for the elements they interract with.

 

If you agree, your "thumbs up" of support is only one click away!
