And, pleasantly, it seems to work How You Would Expect for resizing the window too, which is great! :) (I did notice that my intuitive use of this is to keep the alt key down while doing little adjustments, but this seems to require 2 clicks to "grab the component" - after the first adjustment, the first click-hold seems to de-select the element, while the second "grabs" the component as you'd expect).

You can hold Alt when placing the components, then you can place them more freely. Also right-clicking and setting a different space around component may help when fine tuning. Let me know if this helped. Hi, there’s a couple of tricks that can help you with your cross button scenario. You can hold Alt when placing the components, then you can place them more freely.
