# Adjusting spacing between page elements

The **horizontal** or **vertical spacing** between page elements can be easily made **equal**, **increased**, **decreased**, or **removed** to achieve a well-aligned design.

***

## Steps to Adjust Spacing

### 1. Select Elements

* **Select at least two page elements** that you want to adjust. (See *Selecting Page Elements* for details.)
* **Mark one element** as the **primary selected item**.

### 2. Open Spacing Options

* Click **Spacing** on the **Elements** menu.
* Choose **Horizontal** or **Vertical**, depending on which direction you want to adjust the spacing.

### 3. Choose a Spacing Option

| Menu Item    | Function                                                                |
| ------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Equal**    | Make the spacing **equal** between all selected elements.               |
| **Increase** | **Increase** the spacing between all selected elements.                 |
| **Decrease** | **Decrease** the spacing between all selected elements.                 |
| **Remove**   | **Remove** the spacing so elements are next to each other without gaps. |

## Remarks

* **At least two elements** must be selected to enable spacing adjustments.
* Adjustments are made **relative to the primary selected item**.\
  Example: When **removing spacing**, **all other elements move toward the primary selected item**.
* If **Snap to Grid** is enabled:
  * **Spacing adjustments** will move elements by **one grid point**.
* If **Snap to Grid** is disabled:
  * **Spacing adjustments** will move elements by **one pixel**.
