Position a control on a custom wizard page when you want to control the placement of the control so that all your controls are aligned precisely. You position the control using the X and Y properties on the Layout properties of the control.

To position a control approximately, such as when you are doing your initial layout, do so using drag and drop. For more information on positioning a control on a custom wizard page using drag and drop, see Position a Control on a Custom Wizard Page Using Drag and Drop.
