Align Toolbar
The distribute options on the Align Toolbar have been changed from Distribute centers, to Distribute equally spaced, a more common requirement because it works well with objects of different sizes.

I bought a previous version from Magix with a subscription similar to "Elements." What happens now?
If your subscription from Magix has expired, you can choose to subscribe to one of our Plus products which offer “Elements” bundled, to continue accessing our premium content library. “Elements” is our latest and most comprehensive content offering, designed to give you more design possibilities.
