if you click Use Spacing the items will be uniformly spaced. The items at the extreme ends (left and right) won't move. If the items are the same size you'll have uniform space between the items, if not the space between items will vary, but the distance from the left edge of one item and the left edge of the next will be uniform. Select multiple objects then click Distribute Left Edges and the items will move horizontally so there is uniform space between each item's left edge. The space between the objects won't be affected.ĭistribute means to move the items to have the same amount of space between the reference point (it's a bit complicated).
The objects will move only horizontally so they the left edge of every object is in the same position. For example you can select multiple times then click Align Left. There are two things you can do with the Alignment panel.Īlign means moving the selected objects to they have the same horizontal or vertical alignment. In what way are you trying to align them?
