Barcode on Report Align Center

How do I get a barcode to align center in a report field? I have set the Text Align and Sizing properties both to Center but it still aligns Left.
Text Align = Center
Sizing = Center
I don't think it is possible with the tools in place.
BarcodeSettings section allows to put a margin but it won't center the barcode.

How to make Label's text centered vertically?

I tried one by one each of these methods : setting the BgAlign property to CENTER in the Resource Editor , myLabel.getStyle().setBackgroundAlignment(Style.BACKGROUND_IMAGE_ALIGN_CENTER); but the text of the Label is not centered vertically.
So how to make Label's text centered vertically ?
The following image shows the actual alignement of the Label's text :
Label vertical alignment is unsupported only its positioning in relation to an icon.
As far as I recall you are using FlowLayout for every entry which does support vertical alignment see FlowLayout.setValign(Component.CENTER).

Coordinates in Blend 4 Layouts?

I'm new to Blend 4 and I'm wondering why the Grid layout seems to have it's (0, 0) position in the lower-right corner instead of the upper-left corner ? Can I change it ? Because I want to set Rows/Cols height/width relative to the upper-left corner
The Grid Panel's row/columns do pertain to the upper-left corner. Here's a short tutorial on layout controls in Silverlight by Scott Gu:
http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/pages/silverlight-tutorial-part-2-using-layout-management.aspx
Sometimes when working with Blend it will set crazy margins on controls which make them appear to be in different columns. I would look at the xaml and ensure there's no other properties (margin, padding, transforms) that are making the control appear to be somewhere else in the layout.

ExtJS resizable column layout

I am in need of layout with resizable columns. I have a panel with 3 grid panels inside, now I am using hbox layout in the outer panel to organize them and this is ok, but I want to have a separator, like in the border layout, to resize the columns.
how is it possible?
Use border layout then. Put one grid in west region, one in center and one in east region.
