Align objects using the Property
inspector
The Property inspector lets you precisely align objects on the x and y Stage
axes, from the registration point of the Stage object. The registration point
is the point from which a symbol aligns or rotates. You'll use the Property
inspector to align the logo.
1.
In the Timeline, select the Top layer.
2. From the Library panel (Window > Library), drag the logo to an empty
area of the Stage.
3. In the Property inspector, with the logo still selected, enter 20 in the X
text box and 8 in the Y text box. Press Enter (Windows) or Return
(Macintosh).
The logo moves to the new x and y Stage values.
You can view and change the registration point of an object in the Info
panel (Window > Info). The black square in the grid represents the
registration point. To change it, you click another square in the grid.
