Distributing objects


    If you want a series of buttons or objects to be evenly spaced, you don't need to calculate the appropriate distance between them. The distribute options can place them evenly apart for you, either horizontally or vertically. You can choose to distribute them between the two outermost objects or between the borders of the Title Safe area.

To distribute objects:

  1. Open the menu you want to modify.
  2. In the Menu Editor window, select the objects you want to distribute.
  3. Choose Object > Distribute > Relative to Safe Areas if you want the objects distributed relative to the Title Safe Area and the options is not already selected.
  4. Note: A check mark next to the Relative to Safe Areas indicates it is turned on. To turn the option off, choose it again (Object > Distribute > Relative to Safe Areas).

  5. Choose Object > Distribute > and one of the following options:
    • Vertically to distribute the objects evenly between the top and bottom boundaries of the title-safe zone (if Relative to Safe Areas is turned on) or between the topmost and bottommost objects (if Relative to Safe Areas is turned off).
    • Horizontally to distribute the objects evenly between the left and right boundaries of the title-safe zone (if Relative to Safe Areas is turned on) or between the leftmost and rightmost objects (if Relative to Safe Areas is turned off).
