# Aligning Several Objects At Once

You may select several objects and align them to the page at the same time with either the tool bar or the context menu. This is a fast way to align your left-most objects to the left margin, topmost objects to the top margin, etc.

To align several objects at once with the tool bar

1. Select the group of objects.

2. Make sure the button on the tool bar is clicked (pushed in). When it is clicked, individual positioning is enabled.

3. Use the tool bar buttons to select the position you want:

Button | Action
