About aligning objects
Quickly align objects using the Align tool. You can align objects with or without airwire connections. The airwires adjust automatically.
You can align these objects in each workspace:
| Schematic | 2D PCB | 3D PCB | Footprint |
|---|---|---|---|
| Component | Hole | Text | Hole |
| Text | Text | Pin | Pad |
| VIA | SMD | ||
| Component | Text | ||
| Construction line |
Align behavior for locked objects:
Locked objects in a group stay fixed. Other objects can align to them but not around them.
Example: When aligning LEDs with a locked line, use Align Center Horizontally. The locked line stays fixed while LEDs align horizontally to the line. Construction lines in 2D PCB are locked by default. Unlike locked objects, other objects will align around the construction line.
Example: When aligning LEDs with a construction line, use Align Center Horizontally. The construction line stays fixed while LEDs align horizontally to the line's center.
