Steve Kelem <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #16 from Steve Kelem <[email protected]> --- This bug/enhancement has been open for nine and a half years. Please add the capability of selecting 2 or more objects, the first one being the temporary anchor, then use the user's alignment directive to apply to all the other objects with respect to the first selected object. I've drawn many complicated drawings in Visio, Vectric Aspire, CorelDraw. They all have the feature of selecting n objects and aligning to the 1st or last object. I prefer aligning to the first object because it makes it easy to select the temporary anchor object, select some objects to align along the Y axis, then deselect all but the anchor and then select some other objects to align along the X axis. Moving *all* the selected objects during alignment just destroys all preexisting alignments. Requiring the user to mark an object as fixed for one alignment, and then unmark that object in order to do a 2nd alignment is just extra work that slows the user down. Please, please, I don't want to go back to Visio. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
