Distributing
objects spaces them evenly within the area bounded by the current selection.
The selected objects can be spaced evenly across or down, or arranged in
rows and columns. When you distribute objects in the current selection
area, the objects are spaced evenly between the leftmost and rightmost
edges of the objects in the selection area.
Before distribution, the amount of space between each object
differs.
After distribution, the amount of space between each object
is the same.
When you distribute a number of objects in rows and columns,
the objects closest to the outer edges of the selection area determine
the positions of the leftmost and rightmost columns and the top
and bottom rows.
For complex layouts, distributing a single row
or column at a time provides more control than distributing all
of the objects in rows and columns at once. For the best results,
you could try distributing the leftmost column first, followed by
the topmost row. Afterward, select and left align each row with
the leftmost column.
