I have ten combo boxes next to each other in a row. I have tried movin
them manually so that they look aligned but can't seem to do it wit
the naked eye. Is there a way to have them align perfectly? Thanks.
Happy Holidays

Experiment with combos of Shift and Alt keys while dragging. Increasing
zoom will give a closer look as well.
 
If you show the Drawing toolbar, you'll see some tools that'll help.

You can use the arrow key to select all the comboboxes (just lasso them). Then
under the Draw icon, you can "align or distribute".
 
One way:

Click on the "Select Objects" button (white arrow) in the drawing toolbar

Cursor will turn into a "white arrow"

Draw a rectangle big enough to select all 10 combo boxes

Click Draw* > Align or Distribute > Align Top (or Align Middle)
(*in the drawing toolbar)

Press Esc to revert the cursor to normal

That's what I really meant, but couldn't remember <g>. Thanks for the
memory jog.
 
Actually, I use what you use (I think...)

I like to align them with the cell edges--and the Alt works nicely. (and you
had already mentioned that!)
