Rules

We have a four strike system in this community where you get warned the first time you break a rule, then given a week ban, then given a year ban, then a permanent ban. Certain actions may bypass this and go straight to permanent ban if severe enough and done with malicious intent

If you have a dynamic container, it is sized based on its contents and everything inside of it is positioned based on everything else. If you move something, that impacts everything around it, including the container itself. There are workarounds like having an invisible placeholder and a separate graphical element, but they aren't user-friendly.

Offset transforms allow you to leave the logical version of a thing in place while moving the visual. The demo in the release notes has a grid of icons which get bigger and move when you mouse over them, which would have reflowed the other icons or resized the box before.
