Arranging objects
You can arrange objects in a graphic display in a number of ways, using the Arrange

 Align objects with each other.
 Space objects horizontally or vertically.
 Flip objects horizontally or vertically.
 Rotate objects around an anchor point.
 Combine several objects into a group that behaves as a single object.
 Separate a grouped object into its component objects.

will snap back to its original size. For more information about the LinkSize property, see “Setting
up the link properties of reference objects” on page 17-51.
