Hi,

How do you create more space between the tiles such as in the pic below? Also how do you do it so you can have just 1 row in a group such as below?

When you are selecting the position of your metro tile, just drag it a bit more to the right than usual and it should spring back onto a new column.

Same problem here.

It seems that Start Screen wants to put at LEAST 2 tiles beside each other when they are in a GROUP. No way to separate them and place them under each other, and have just 1 colum instead of 2.

Maybe the Gurus here know of a way?

Are we talking about ROWS that go horizontally or columns? For a single row that is one tile and centered, you can use Decor8 or a registry tweak to do that under the Windows Metrics key I think.

Just drag to a group then, it matters on the tile size if its larger than only 1 if its small then 2 next to each other and keep on going down.
