Checkbox.align readwrite property
Get or set the Checkbox alignment, which position and size will be aligned relative to its parent (alignment persists even if the size of the parent changes).

- "bottom" : the Checkbox will be aligned along the bottom border of the parent, preserving its height.
- "top" : the Checkbox will be aligned along the the top border of the parent, preserving its height.
- "right" : the Checkbox will be aligned along the right border of the parent, preserving its width.
- "left" : the Checkbox will be aligned along the left border of the parent, preserving its width.
