Manual editing of height, width and X/Y position of elements

When making displays and placing graphs and other elements, it would be very nice to be able to manually specify the X and Y positions, as well as width and height of the element.


At the moment, placement and size adjustments can only be don by dragging and dropping, which is quite inaccurate and makes it hard to get different elements to be the same size.


I would like the values for height, width, X-position and Y-position the be exposed and editable in format/configure panel. This would make it easier to make nice looking displays with uniformly sized objects. See attached picture for example

    I agree with this suggestion!
    It would be very helpful to set the size of shapes numerically, as in Microsoft Word. This would make it possible to ensure that multiple shapes are exactly the same size - something that is currently difficult to achieve. It would be especially useful to resize several existing shapes to the same dimensions at once.

    In my display, each shape has its own multistate configuration, and I would like to enlarge the circles without recreating them. Resizing by dragging is imprecise and can make the circles different sizes or distort them into ovals. Recreating the shapes would also mean setting up each multistate configuration again.
