The dynamic grid is a set of alignment, spacing, and resizing guides that appear when you move a shape near another shape, or near the margin of a page or container. The shape gently “snaps” into an aligned position along the guides.

Alignment guides appear when the centers or sides of shapes align, and spacing guides appear when the spacing matches that of other nearby shapes. When shapes are different sizes, guides also appear when matching edges (such as the top edges) align.
