Aligning Objects using the Crosshair
To use the Crosshair to align objects do one of the following:
- Move the Crosshair axes and align it with the object.
- Select an object and drag it until it is aligned with either axis of the Crosshair, or a grid line.
In either case, if a bond or side of the object is parallel to one of the axis, it disappears when it is exactly positioned over a Crosshair axis.
To align another object on the Crosshair:1. Select a second object.2. Drag the second object to the Crosshair axis or grid line and align it to the first.You can also move selected objects in small increments to align them with the Crosshair using the Arrow keys available on some keyboards:

- Select the objects and then press an Arrow key.
