When I first started using the Arrange button, it seemed to arrange separate images correctly which it is no longer doing. Perhaps I have inadvertently set some option somewhere.



What I would like to do:

• use arrange to vertically align boxes (objects created with drawing tool) where the alignment distributes between the top and bottom selected boxes. I.e. if I select 4 boxes, and the if the top box is 2.13" from the top of the slide, and the bottom is 5.13" from the top of the slide, I want vertical alignment to distribute all 4 boxes evenly between 2.13" and 5.13". How alignment works now is that the 4 boxes are being distributed between top and bottom of entire slide (page).
• use "align to top" to align currently selected boxes to the topmost box. Alignment is currently aligning to the top of the slide (page).

[I have some idea that drawing objects on-top-of/inside a text frame produces different results from drawing objects on-top-of no frame at all.]

Can you help?
