Aligning Objects

You can align two or more selected objects in seven different ways:

• Left: Horizontally along the left edge of the objects
• Center: Horizontally along the center of the objects
• Right: Horizontally along the right edge of the objects
• Top: Vertically along the top edge of the objects
• Middle: Vertically along the middle of the objects
• Bottom: Vertically along the bottom edge of the objects
• Center Middle: Horizontally along the center of the objects, and vertically along the top edge of the objects

NOTE: All alignments refer to the object considered to be the primary selection. Which object is regarded as the primary selection depends on how the objects are selected. For more information, see the Groups section.

NOTE: The Align drop-down menu options indicate how the objects can be positioned relative to the primary selection.

You align two or more objects to position them evenly.

To align objects:

1. In Graphics Editor, in the work area, select the objects you want to align.
   

   NOTE: Make sure the object that controls the alignment is the primary selection. The primary selection is enclosed within a blue, dashed rectangle.

2. On the Options toolbar, click the Align button and select the required alignment from the drop-down menu.
