User-driven applications belong to the new type of programs, in which users get the full control of WHAT, WHEN, and HOW must appear on the screen. Such programs can exist only if the screen view is organized not according with the predetermined scenario, written by the developers, but if any screen object can be moved, resized, and reconfigured by any user at any moment. This article describes the algorithm, by which an object of an arbitrary shape can be turned into moveable and resizable. It also explains some rules of such design and the technique, which can be useful in many cases. Both the individual movements of objects and their synchronous movements are analysed. After discussing the individually moveable controls, different types of groups are analysed and the arbitrary grouping of controls is considered.
