Align tool doesn't work in Photo


Recommended Posts

I have multiple elements selected that I wish to align horizontally+ vertically. When I click Align buttons(either to selection or to page), it aligns them, but as soon as I hit OK it misaligns them again back to original positions.

This happens all the time with different documents, it's starting to get really annoying when a simple action like this doesn't work. Using Windows 10, AP version 1.7.3.481

Hey sarituulia,

This happens when you drag your own Alignment button from the Customise Toolbar dialog. The button over to the far-right (default) should work. This bug should be fixed in the next beta. 

Hi Chris, I'm not sure if we're on the same page.. This is basically what I'm referring to- as soon as I click OK after aligning, the objects jump back to original places. At the moment the only way I can align to center is to have the Snap tool on, and manually align which is a pain for multiple objects...

You are using an alignment button that you created/positioned on the Toolbar. Chris pointed out that the bug you are experiencing happens in that case. But if you use the default alignment button on the far right of the toolbar it will work properly.

Oh thanks for clarifying that Walt, I hadn't even noticed there was the default? align button there! Thanks for the help!
