Align a set of fields

[WayneP]

Is there a way to select several fields and then align them all (either vertically or horizontally) ? For instance the, in the 2nd tutorial I have moved some key fields to the stripe. I want to align all of those fields horizontally.

Hi Wayne,

Yes, Not a problem.

In Version 3.1.0
1) If you are using version 3.1.0, you will have to click each field one by one and hold CTRL key down to select the fields you want.
2) Click the little wheel at the top of your screen to see the alignment options drop down. Choose align bottom edges (if that's what you would like to do). Please not the alignement will be based on the first element you have selected.

In version 3.1.1 you will be able to:
1) use the selection tool to draw a box.
2) select the alignement option you like from the top toolbar.
