LineUp moves selected symbols on the HP OpenView submap and evenly spreads them either on an axis or a vector joining the extreme symbols. The resulting maps are pleasing to the eye and make laying out maps more attractive and easier to use.

How easy is LineUp to use?:

LineUp is very simple, easy and intuitive to use. Simply select the symbols you would like in a straight line and then click on the View menu and either "Align Symbols on axis" or "Align symbols end-to-end". That’s all!!

"Align symbols on axis" moves two or more selected symbols to their most natural axis. If the selected symbols are spread roughly along a horizontal line, then LineUp moves them to be evenly spread along the average horizontal line that runs through the symbols. If the symbols are spread roughly along a vertical line then it is to this line the symbols are moved.

"Align symbols end-to-end" moves three or more selected symbols to be evenly spread along a vector that joins the most extreme symbols.

 "Move Symbols to form Circle" moves three or more selected symbols to be evenly spread along the circumference of a circle that is centered at the mid point of the symbols with a radius that is the average distance of the symbols to the new center.
