The different objects have different dimensions, so what I do, is adjust them by using spacer boxes
new window( "Test",
line up box( N Col( 2 ),
V List Box(
Spacer Box( size( 0, 2 ) ),
H List Box(
Text Box( "Variable 1" ),
Number Edit Box( 0 )
)
),
Button Box( "Create Column" ),
H List Box(
Text Box( "Variable 2" ),
Number Edit Box( 0 )
),
Text Box( "" ),
V List Box(
Spacer Box( size( 0, 2 ) ),
H List Box(
Text Box( "Variable 3" ),
Number Edit Box( 0 )
)
),
Button Box( "Create Column" )
)
)
