Alignment & Distribution

Alignment

Select two or more elements, then use the Alignment controls in the Properties Panel to align them relative to each other or to the canvas.

Alignment Reference Options

  • Align to Selection (default): The alignment boundary is the bounding box of all selected elements combined.
  • Align to Canvas: The alignment boundary is the canvas itself. Useful for centering an element on the canvas.
  • Align to Key Object: One element in the selection is designated the key object; all others align to it without it moving. Click an element while it is already selected to make it the key object (it will show a thicker highlight border).
