    When running Tools>Distribute Objects on multiple Pipes, they aren't correctly Distributed as per where I click.
    The spacing is correct, but they end up offset.

    New Document with Pipes and some Circles before doing Distribute Objects

    Selecting Circles and running Distribute Objects [clicking on start arrow to finish arrow]
    and Selecting Pipes and running Distribute Objects with exact same clicks [arrow to arrow]

    Gets even more fun when you select both, Selection order is Circle, Pipe alternating then a distribution.

    And Selecting Circles then Pipes and distributing

    Hi Shaun,
    Our apologize for missing this and thank you for sending it to the support email. This is going to be addressed in our next version of wysiwyg . A response to your email was just sent that also included a limited workaround.
    To summarize:
    "A limited workaround for the alignment would be to turn on borders and legs and try to minimize their height Otherwise, rotate the pipe 90 degrees to align in that particular direction (so that the border and legs are perpendicular to the alignment axis) and then rotate back. Admittedly this workaround does require more mouse clicks/work but ultimately the solution will be provided in the next version of wysiwyg".

    Regards
