Button location on Screen

Android v1.5 I see that we have fixed options for buttons (Grid, Top, Bottom, Vertical and Horizontal). Are we able to manipulate them in any way? My home page has a background and I would like to freely place a couple buttons over to specific spots on the screen. Unfortunetly they do not just fall as I would like neatly using any of the above formats. With some specific code are we able to place buttons on the screen in our own strategic position? Thanks

Hi gbakakos, You would have to dig into the .java files and make some manual changes. I don't have eclipse installed on this machine, so I don't recall the specific file, but they are named fairly logically. Try BT_screen_menuButton.java or something similar.
