3.1 Orientation The first design decision you will need to make is the orientation of your buttons. They can either be vertically or horizontally aligned. In most cases, the shape of your image will normally dictate the type of orientation you use - a tall image will generally have vertically orientated buttons, and a wide image will generally have horizontally orientated buttons. The orientation is set through the Orientation parameter value. This will need to be set to '0' for a vertically orientated set of buttons, or '1' for a horizontally orientated set of buttons. The following sample script is setting horizontal alignment:
3.2 Margins Having decided upon your button orientation, the placement of your buttons will then rely on these four parameter values: TopMargin BottomMargin LeftMargin RightMargin These parameters represent pixel values and they are combined together to determine your button placement. This diagram shows how they are interpreted to display a horizontal row of buttons along the base of the image:  The example above used the same value (20 pixels) for the LeftMargin, RightMargin and BottomMargin parameters. Then a much larger value (80 pixels) was used for the TopMargin parameter. This sample script shows an example of these parameter values:
3.3 Spacing The final aspect of button placement is specifying how far apart each button is. This is achieved through the Spacing parameter value. This sample script shows an example of spacing the buttons apart by 3 pixels:
