Aligning Objects
You can accurately align objects horizontally, vertically, or both. The objects are aligned based on
the location of the first selected object. For example, if you have a Text object, an Address object,
and a line object and you want the Address and line objects to have their left sides start at the same
point as the Text object, select the Text object first, followed by the other two objects.
Note You must have the Designer tab selected in order to move, delete, or resize an object.

object, select the Image object first, followed by the other two objects.
