I have an example that isn't quite solved by that. Say I have a flow chart which has 4 columns. I want to spread those 4 columns evenly, so after selecting the widest element from each column I ask for horizontal spreading. Now, I need to center the rest of the elements in each column to the middle of the element selected (the widest) in the column. In this case, neither "horizontal -> center" or "left" or "right" or any combination will do what I expect.
