Default Object alignment, set dominant

When aligning two or more objects, is it possible to select(set) a dominant object? i.e. a object may already be in the correct position and it is necessary to have others align with it regardless of size.



In some instances the alignment which results is a combination of the two positions needing further correction to get the objects back to the correct position.

There's no way in the UI to do this.

We do have an AddIn that forces the normal Microsoft tools to align to the first selected "anchor" shape. It isn't free but it won't break the bank either.
