can anyone hep with the align tool in Illustrator please?
Hi
Someone could save me a lot of time by telling me how you align one object to an other without both objects moving to the middle position of the two. ie one object stays where it is and you align the other object to it. In Corel its the first object you select that stays "still" so to speak and the second object you select moves to the first.
Does that make sense??
Cheers

Hi Russ,
It makes sense. I am curious as well. Not sure if there is a way.

found this … Nothing has changed in CS2 about the align tool. Select the objects you want to align with the selection tool, and then click once on the object that you want the others to align to. This single click anchors the object. Now hit an alignment choice, and the other items will do the movin’.
hope that helps.

eureka nick,
u just won our daily award! It worked perfect. I just made a little mistake: i did the "cick once" in combination with the shift-key :lol1:
thanks a lot,

Good skills Nick. You legend – that has been bugging me for ages. You will, in the long run, save me (Marek and Bart) days!!
Cheers and hope I can return the favour one day.

Thanks Nick!
I couldn’t get it to work either, until I remembered I was holding down the shift key. 😳
