As far as I know, the alignment tools in the object inspector are simply
implementing common 'set the x of obj y to the x of obj z' statements. EG.,
set the left of button 1 to the left of button 2 -- which button is the anchor
being determined by which object was selected first.
If I'm wrong about this I'd like to know.
