Photojunction's alignment tools are pretty cool (here's a video) but just occasionally tech support gets asked a question, and we think, "I should know that" or, "Good idea - can PJ do it?" Today I got asked about aligning images centrally between a panorama image and the edge of the page, as in the picture.L02 When in doubt I ask a developer. Yes, they said, and here's how: 1. Add your images to the page and arrange them roughly where you want them to be. In this case I would place the pano image how I want it and then align and space the three smaller images as a group, as normal. The challenge is to align the three images exactly in the centre of the white space. 2. Select the pano image and make sure it is "fit full height" using the drop-down for sizes in the tools window. Even if ultimately you do not want the image to be full height this is the key to making it work - and by the way it doesn't need to be a panorama page provided you make the image "full height". You can always change the height later. 3. Select the three images you want to centralize between the pano and the edge of the page. 4. With those images still selected, click the "align to centre of page" button in the tools window. Now you have the images centred you can go back and adjust the height of the full height image if you wish. Try it. If you follow the instructions above but WITHOUT the fill full height step it won't work. You'll find the three images align to the centre of the page as normal. Add that step back in and the images align in the space between the pano and the edge of the page. HTH, Pete
