Layout and connections

Inkfinite can arrange a selection by geometry or by the relationships stored between objects.

Align and distribute

Select two or more objects and open Layout. Alignment commands line up left, center, right, top, middle, or bottom edges. Distribution makes horizontal or vertical spacing even. Tidy repairs an uneven row or column, while stack and grid commands create a regular arrangement.

Order commands move objects forward, backward, to the front, or to the back. The menu also groups, ungroups, locks, and unlocks a selection.

Graph layout

Tree, flow, and radial layouts arrange objects connected by relationship bindings. Tree and flow layouts support horizontal and vertical directions. Radial layout places connected objects around the graph.

Graph layout reads relation bindings and both endpoints of bound arrows. It does not infer an edge because two objects happen to be near each other. Select the connected objects you want to arrange, then choose a graph layout from Layout.

Arrow bindings

Create an arrow and drop an endpoint on a shape to bind it. A bound endpoint follows the shape when it moves or resizes. Arrows can be straight, curved, or elbow-routed and can carry labels and relationship metadata.

Use arrow selection controls to change routing, bends, heads, and labels. A free endpoint remains at its canvas position until you drag it onto an object.

Snapping

When you move or resize a selection, Inkfinite can snap edges, centers, corners, handles, and equal gaps to nearby content. The canvas draws a guide for each active snap. Change snapping and grid preferences from the status bar.
