EIn the Drag Properties dialog box, select height, width, and X-coordinate. A check mark
will appear next to each one.
EUse the mouse to drag these properties from academic to attract.
This gives attract the same x coordinate as academic. In other words, it aligns them
vertically. It also makes attract the same size as academic if they are not already the
same size.
EThen drag from attract to GPA, GPA to height, and so on. Keep this up until all six
variables are lined up vertically.
