I'd like to place a command button directly underneath the View Call Hierarchy button on the context window.
I've only been able to add a button at the very bottom of the entire menu using IDM_VS_CTXT_CODEWIN.
Is it even possible?
Theoretically, the menu item position is controlled by the Button priority attribute. And you can find other button priorities using the Command Explorer extension. But I didn't try it myself.

In Xcode 8.1, I can update for each view in the storyboard by clicking on the "Update Frames" button. But I want to update all views, how I can do that?
They added one standalone button to the leftmost side in the constraints controls (it looks like a refresh button). And you can also look for "Update Frames", from the toolbar and selecting Editor -> Resolve Auto Layout Issues -> Update Frames if you want you can select "Apply to all views in container" as before.. for you reference attaching screenshots.
Update frames example video
It seems to update the frames hierarchically. If you select the main view or even the view controller and press the button, it will update frames for all child views.
If I understand you right you update frames when you have warnings about misplaced views. In this case, you can simply check the "Apply for all views in container" checkbox at the bottom of popup (which appears when you try to solve your warnings in the Document Outline) before pressing "Update Frames"
What I'm trying to do is simple: bring a label in front of an image within a subview.
But all of the options for arranging are disabled/un-selectable when my label is selected. I find this happens often.
What could be the reason that I'm almost never allowed to change the z-axis of my objects in the Arrange menu? Is it a better practice to avoid this feature and set the order of views programmatically?
It can depend on how you have selected the label (similar to how the label can only be moved with the keyboard when selected in some ways).
A simple alternative is to look at the list of view in the pane on the left and to drag the views up and down to change the order.
It happens sometimes. In that situation, click the view or image you want to send back then you will see little square box at the edges of image from which you can re size your image, Just click on it once and then go to Editor > Arrange > Choose option according your need.
If I select a view with my mouse in a storyboard or xib, Xcode will select the front most view. I know that I can select the other views in the document outline, but if I want to grab a background view to move it with my mouse, the front most view gets selected again when I click in the storyboard.
I think there is a way to cycle through the views and select the ones in the back by holding down on some keys, but I can't find what it is. Does anyone know?
I'm using Xcode 4.6. I know that I can also move background views using the size inspector, but I'm looking for a way to position them with my mouse.
One way is to use the jump bar at the top of the editor. It's the control that shows the path of objects leading to the current selection.
Another way is to press control+shift and left click (or shift right click) an item. That shows you all of the objects under the mouse in a menu, and allows you to disambiguate the one you meant to select.
The good news: Place your mouse on the overlapped images, press and hold shift and right click the mouse. You should see the list of objects, select your object in the back. You can resize as you wish.
The bad news: you can only use the cursor arrows if you want to move it!
Select the view from the menu on the left of interface builder.
One of the cells in my DBTreeListView is bound to a repository item that is a progress bar.
I want to be able to edit the progress displayed by clicking on this cell. At this stage my application should change its cell to another repository item: a text field where I'll be able to insert a value. Once focus is changed to another cell, my progress bar should be displayed again, showing a new value. How do I do this?
DBTreeListView has column events OnGetEditingProperty and OnGetEditProperties. I'll probably use one (or both) of them, but can't come up with any good idea.
This can be simply. You should handle click on this progress bar and display editor over it. You need to handle scrolling and clicking in another place to get rid of editor. And in case that scrolling too far - editor should be hidden.
Steps:
Create hidden editor for progress
Handle OnClick for tree view item
Display editor and set focus
On editor enter (or tab) save progress information
On click on form or another part of tree view - hide editor (saving/discarding changes how specified by your policy)
On scroll tree view move the editor and when bounds of parent does not overlap bounds of editor - hide it

we're using smartGWT for our web application. An the main page is a tabset that shows different tabs. What I want to do is do a button to the tab set with the setTabBarControls method which then is alligned to the left instead to the right. So it would somewhat look like the current Firefox version.
Is there a possibility to change the allignment of the TabBarControls? I couldn't find any.
If you want to create something like the Firefox corner button, just use TabSet.addChild(). That will place the button at the upper left, and you can use setLeft/setTop to move it elsewhere. If you want the control to appear to the left of the tabs, set a layoutStartMargin on the TabBar to leave space for it.
