To distribute spacing, choose multiple objects and choose to distribute spacing vertically or horizontally in the align palette. After selecting your key object, select your alignment(s). You will notice your key object will have a thicker selection border around it all other objects will now be aligned relative to this object. Release the shift key and click the object you want to set as your key object. To align to key objects, choose multiple objects (holding shift).In order to align to artboard, choose a single or multiple object(s), choose Align to Artboard from the menu or palette and select your alignment.In order to align to selection, choose multiple objects by holding shift on the keyboard while clicking each object/shape, choose Align to Selection from the menu or palette and select your alignment(s).There are three ways to use align/distribute: to selection, to key object, to artboard. Alternately, you can always access the align palette from the Window menu. When you select multiple objects, the align menu will pop up along the top. When you hold alt+shift, and drag with your mouse, you create a copy of a shape or group and move it in a straight line horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. When you hold alt and drag with your mouse, you create a duplicate copy of a shape or group.
When you hold shift+alt, it still scales the object proportionately but uses the center as the reference point. When holding shift, you can scale an object proportionately from a corner. The direct selection tool (white arrow) allows you to select an individual anchor point, an individual piece within a group, or allows you to modify a path using anchor points and bezier curves. The selection tool (black arrow) allows you to select a whole shape or whole group. Check out the slides below and learn to love Illustrator.
