I am unable to swipe to select multiple items with my mouse (have to hold down key and click each one). Also, I have no alignment tools. When I finally get multiple items selected there are now alignment tools (I can align text but not items).

Hi @rhondalaws ,

 

To select multiple items in mouse navigation mode, you need to hold Shift and click the board to select the desired items.

You should then be able to align the items by clicking the  Align objects button in the context menu. Selected objects can be aligned horizontally, vertically and on left/right sides in relation to each other.

Hope this helps!

@Georgina Cornwall - If your sticky notes are in a Table, the alignment option will not be available:

This GIF shows that both the Grouping and Alignment tools disappear when the objects are in a Table:

 


@Georgina Cornwall Could you perhaps share a screenshot?


Thank you for your response to my query Henrik...I actually created a gif but couldn’t find a place to put it in my original post...here it is 😊

Ahhh Robert, it appears you nailed my problem...😁…thank you 💗


Sounds like align them outside the table, and then drag them in is the way to go 😉

 


Hello, I’m having an issue where my alignment / distribute tools are all greyed out. I cannot horizontally distribute objects or stickies. 


Do swim lanes count as a table?


Hello! I suddenly lost an access to my 3rd board. According to my free plan I can use 3 boards, but today my 3rd board suddenly became view only board. What’s the matter?
