The alignment buttons allow you to align a set of selected page elements.
The Control Page Designer uses an anchor element as the reference for alignment operations. This is the first element that you select in the set of elements that you wish to align. It's easy to identify the anchor element: it has a darker border color than the other selected elements:
In the following alignment operations, Halogen does not change the position of the anchor element, but moves all of the other selected elements to satisfy the alignment choice. For example, clicking on (align left) for the selection shown above results in the following: All elements are aligned relative to the anchor element, Toggle (7).
note: Select multiple elements by holding down shift while selecting individual elements or by clicking on a blank area of the layout workspace and dragging a selection rectangle around the elements you want to select.
