Selecting and aligning multiple objects
Multiple selection — the alignment tools in the ribbon become active- Drag on an empty area to select all objects within the range. Shift+click adds or removes objects one at a time, and Ctrl+A selects all.
- Relative to: [Object] — Aligns the selected objects to each other (select 2 or more)
- Relative to: [Label] — Aligns relative to the label area (works with just 1 selected)
- Distribute horizontally/vertically — Spaces objects evenly horizontally or vertically (select 3 or more)

View
- Zoom — Ctrl+mouse wheel or the ± buttons in the ribbon's [View] group (25%–500%)
- Rotate view — Rotates only the view by 90° so portrait labels are easier to edit. The printed result does not change.

- Edge areas the printer can't print are hatched as the Non-printable area, and a warning appears if an object is inside it.
