Why are my buttons and objects all over the
place when I test or run my application?
It's all about object alignment. On a program, which can change it's size,
each object needs to know where it should align itself - where it will
be placed. Objects, which are placed on a container object like the Main
Dialog or a Panel, need to be aligned with a reference point, for example
the top left corner. If you place a button in the bottom right corner
of your Main Dialog, it needs alignment to Bottom + Right in its object
properties, so it knows where to place itself during and after a resize
of the user interface.
Solution: select the objects in question and check
their alignment settings on the properties window. Set the alignment to
the reference points where you want your objects to stay.

Why is my Exe-file not working?
A common mistake, which can happen when
building your project, is to confuse a single exe file, created by the
Executable method with the exe file, which is generated by the Raw files
method. The latter is not able to run without the files and subfolders
created during the build process in the output folder.
Solution:
if your exe file does not launch the program as expected, please make
sure you chose the right file (single exe) or you launched the exe of
a raw built in its proper environment - with subfolders and files...

When
I try to edit an html page in my additional files, my browser opens instead
of my preferred HTML editor.
This
happens because the edit button opens the standard program associated
with the selected file type, unless you specify a different program under
File->External editors.
Solution: Open File->External editors and specify
the path to your html editor by clicking the "..." button next
to the html entry and choosing the path to the exe of your editor.

Tool windows or properties window do not
show up any more, disappeared.
Either you separated the tool window before by clicking twice on their
Tab on the main tool window and afterwards you closed it, or your window
has been moved out of the visible part of the screen.
Solution:
bring the window back by selecting it from the View
menu. There you can see if the missing window has been disabled or not.
Enabled tool windows have a checkmark, the ones you do not find should
not have a checkmark besides their name.
If that's not the case (if the window
in question has a checkmark, but you can't find it anyway, bring it back
by clicking View->Set
tool windows to defaults in
the
View menu.
