Start with core concepts

This video introduces essential ways for arranging and aligning objects in your projects.

What you'll learn

Change the order of objects

Bring objects forward or send them backward—changing the “stack order”—to change the look.

Group objects together

Group all the elements that make up an object so that you can select, move, and transform them as one.

Edit content within a group

Use Isolation mode to directly edit a group without having to ungroup first.

Align objects to each other

Align and position objects visually by dragging using magenta-colored Smart Guides, or try various Align options to precisely align objects.
