From the 2.1.3 manual https://wiki.librecad.org/images/2/20/LibreCAD_Users_Manual_2.1.3.pdf page 37:

Aligns entities or text with similar. The cursor changes to a hatched cross and the command line says:
 Select objects; (select one or more [window] then press enter key).
 Select base point (from previously selected objects).
 First target point (snap to proposed grid point etc.)
 Second base point (other 'end' of original location entity)
 Second Target point (moved to selected position)


Do not forget to close the selection with enter.


Thank you very much.

However, when I follow these instructions, I get unusual results...

I just tried to align the top horizontal lines on three objects.

Here is what they look like before and after the align operation.

Thanks!
