Working with the 2D Graph
  1. Activate the parent of elements to be aligned.
  2. From the 2D graph or tree, multiselect elements.

    Tip: The alignment commands are based on the boundaries of your selection, like a box containing all the selected elements.



  3. From the 2D Graph section of the action bar, select Align Top .
    The selected elements are aligned along with the upper instance.

  4. To resize the selected elements, select Same Width or Same Height .
    The size of the first element of your selection is applied to the selected elements (in our example, the first selected element is the left one).

  5. To create an equivalent space between the selected elements or ports, select Distribute Vertically or Distribute Horizontally .
