Grant's Alignment tools?

[MarieBoyer]

I have these but have never used them because I do not know how. Is there a quick tutorial explaining how they work? When best to use them? (I have a feeling that they would be helpful as I make templates, but not sure how to use them.)

Thanks in advance.

Marie,

First, link the layers together (those with objects you want to be aligned), then select one of those layer in the layers palette. Next, click and drag the alignment tool over the image and magically, the objects will be aligned!

Hope this helps!

Grant,

Snapz Pro X 2, with movie option. Let me know once you get it, I'll tell you which video codecs works best.

Thanks so much Ray! That is a tool I will probably use a lot now!

I watched your three-part DVD case video tutorial yesterday. I made another DVD and needed a case cover. Thank goodness for those videos.

And thank you for taking the time to make yet another. Much appreciated!

Glad to help you, Marie :)
