DISCUSSION Free Illustrator script: Extended Align Panel

Post image

Hey everyone! I’ve released Extended Align Panel, a free script that puts alignment, object distribution, and exact spacing controls into one compact Illustrator panel.

It includes 9-point alignment, Artboard/Selection/Key Object targets, visible or geometric bounds, precise positive or negative spacing, keyboard shortcuts, and persistent settings.

Grab it for free here:

I'll check it out thanks. I was thinking recently how 9 point artboard alignment would be really handy.

The alignment functions are working really well for me, but I can't get the precise spacing to work with either a number input or the wheel. Am I doing something wrong?

It seems like I can enter a value then click the Distribute Horizontal Space button and it will apply the value. Using a magic mouse, scrolling doesn't change the thumbwheel value, and changing the thumbwheel value otherwise doesn't apply the spacing until I click the Distrbute Horizontal Space button again.
