Space Objects

The Space Objects command distributes the spacing between selected objects.

Objects are spaced based upon their center points.

The Space command contains four options: horizontal space evenly, horizontal space a specific way, vertical space evenly, and vertical space a specific way. Each of the space objects options has a corresponding button on the Alignment Bar.

      2. From the Edit menu, select Space Objects.

      3. Select the way you'd like to space the objects. Your choices are:
