Hi All,

Does Photoshop CS have a feature similiar to Macromedia Fireworks, where I can see the exact x and y axis location of a page element or individual layer? I thought that maybe the info pallet would help in this regard, but all that does is follow the movement of my mouse.

I like to do my alignments and distributions manually. It would be so helpful to have this feature in Photoshop and would stop me from having to import my .psd into Fireworks just to see the x and y locations.

All help is much appreciated!

Thanks,
mozzyman

Hi there
If you enter the free transform mode (CTRL T) then you'll have access to a number of co-ordinates and measurements in the options bar.
Is this what you mean?

mozzyman,
Press [Ctrl+R] and see co-ordinates of your mouse pointer on the rulers
