Action	What it does
Constrain Positioning	Toggles constrain mode on or off. In constrain mode, absolutely positioned elements move along only one axis at a time (either X or Y) when you drag them. This enables you to adjust an element's horizontal position without affecting its vertical position and vice versa.
Set Grid Size	Sets the cell size of the invisible grid that absolutely positioned elements snap to when you drag them. You specify the X and Y values for the cell size (in pixels) in the Set Grid Cell Size dialog box.
