Today I want to share a quick alignment tip for Illustrator (I’m using CS4). First of all let me say that this is a very simple tip but it won’t be useful every time. You have to need one of your points not to move. That’s the purpose of this technique. Like I said, it’s easy, so let’s get started.
I’ve got a super-useful Illustrator tip today. How to align to a “key object.” This is my first HD video, so it’s best viewed in full screen mode. I hope this tip saves some people a little headache

We all know that alignment is a huge part of any design. The more control we have over alignment, the better. After a certain point, 100% alignment control gives way to new opportunities to make Illustrator even more useful, like making seamless patterns for example. I want to show you how “anchor points” work in Illustrator, and hopefully send you into control-freak bliss.
