Can I say how much I hate.. ?

O.K. slight re-think to keep within the rules.

My version for alignment;

1/Make selection.

2/Choose point of alignment; top edges, left edges, centre etc. (with however many icons you feel are needed) to make things clearer, this could create a guideline in the display showing where the default alignment within the selection would be.

3/To keep within the no 'button-up' drag rule, either accept the default as shown by the guideline or drag the line and release it at the point you want the selection to be (inside the selection or anywhere in the doc or spread)


The profile would actually only need to move in one plane at a time, I don't see any point in moving away from the alignment, the movement I suggest would affect distribution along the alignment or spacing within a distribution similar to the way it does in a blend. This is only an after thought I figured might be quite good, come to think of it I can't come up with a specific circumstance when this would be useful LOL!
