# Macro Name: orthogonal_alignment.cpp                              		   #
# Purpose: Uses basepoints to move objects to align orthogonally        	   #
#                                                                              #

# --------------------------
# Notes:
# This script is bound to the hotkey Ctrl + 1 for Horizontal alignment, Ctrl + 2 for Vertical alignment.
# The first aspect must already be selected and have the curser over where the first base point should be.
