Have you tried using "Show Object Hierarchy" (under the "Layout" menu) along with the
"Property Inspector" (under the "Window" menu)? Once the object is selected, pull the
form window forward, and you can use the arrow keys to move the object one pixel at a
time. IMHO those are far more useful (to me) for editing overlapping form objects than
a magnified form view would be... though I agree it would be a nice feature.
