Distributing objects

When you have three or more objects selected on your page, you can use the following Distribute features (from the Distribute submenu, under the Arrange menu, or in the Distribute drop-down list in the Action Bar ) to distribute them so that they are positioned evenly.

• Top Edges  Moves the objects between the top-most and bottom-most objects so that all top edges are evenly spaced in the vertical direction.
• Bottom Edges  Moves the objects between the top-most and bottom-most objects so that all bottom edges are evenly spaced in the vertical direction.
• Left Edges  Moves the objects between the left-most and right-most objects so that all the left edges are evenly spaced in the horizontal direction.
• Right Edges  Moves the objects between the left-most and right-most objects so that all the right edges are evenly spaced in the horizontal direction.
• Vertical Centers  Moves all of the objects between the top-most and bottom-most objects so that all the center points are evenly spaced in the vertical direction.
• Horizontal Centers  Moves all of the objects between the left-most and right-most objects so that all the center points are evenly spaced in the horizontal direction.

Tip: If you click the word "Distribute" in the Action Bar (instead of the arrow next to it), Expression Design applies the last used alignment to your selected objects.
