Matisse, Visual Studio, ... Interface Builder!

I agree with what you said about Matisse. I find it incredibly frustrating to get components to line up and stay where I want them - I keep trying in the hope that I will stumble upon the secret trick I’ve been missing all along.

I wonder if you have ever tried Interface Builder for OS X. That looks a bit like Matisse with the way it puts up guidelines automatically when a component has the ‘right’ spacing from another component, but it just works much better IMO. It is very easy to get a good looking layout that will scale nicely.
