I personally find 'if' more legible than ?: and definitely expressions like b = x==y || x==z;
I am not sure if WindowAlign will always have only these 4 members and possibly the author of
the original version wasn't either (thus final else).

Since I am a newbie here, I would vote for a simple 'if' or a 'switch'.
Let me know what is the decision and I will change the code accordingly or... feel free to
change the code and provide an alternative patch.
