With the new alignment toolbar, you can now align multiple objects (like your text or artwork) to the tops, middles or bottoms of one another.

We’re really excited about a new Premium feature - Patterned Lines! With this feature, you can add some really stunning details to your design with just a few clicks, as well as functional designs such as stitching holes or tabs that hold small parts into the sheet you’re cutting them from.
