About Align | Stack

This is a contextual, multi function smart arrows script that can align nodes, stack them close together, jump to/from them, and match backdrop sizes. All operations are based on a reference node, so you can always control what to Align, stack or match to. If 1 or less nodes are selected it defaults to frame forward/backwards navigation, so you can still use the arrow keys for that function

How Align | Stack Works

Align Vertically: Use either the Left or Right arrows to align nodes to the reference nodes vertical axis (x position)

Align Horizontally: Use either the Up or Down arrows to align nodes to the reference nodes horizontal axis (y position)

Stack Vertically: Use Up Arrow to stack below the highest node in the selection, Use Down Arrow will stack above the lowest node in the selection

Stack Horizontally: Use Left Arrow to stack to the right of the left most node in the selection. Use Right Arrow to stack to the left of the right most node in the selection

Reference Node: This is the last node you select. It will act as the reference for alignment of all other nodes selected
