P: Add even spacing align (distribute space) like Illustrator

Something I love in illustrator is spacing out objects evenly no matter the object's width. IE: putting 20px between each differently shaped nav item.

    Also important is for the distribute and align features to move shapes within a pixel grid!

    while aligning something is nice to have, it can be done manually, if all fails. what I would like to see is a "spread randomly" (both in PS and AI), since good randomness is incredible hard to achieve.

    Hi Julian, great idea.

    There is a workaround that may work for you in the meantime. Trevor Morris has created some slick scripts to do this:

    Distribute Layers Horizontally - This script distributes all selected layers horizontally, so that the layers are evenly spaced.

    Distribute Layers Vertically - This script distributes all selected layers vertically, so that the layers are evenly spaced.
