Align To Middle

The align-to-middle icon represents object distribution and alignment to horizontal center axes in design and layout applications. Featuring multiple elements aligned to a common center line, this symbol has become the standard control for distributing objects to middle positions, creating center-aligned groups, and managing horizontal object spacing in interface builders.

In modern applications like Canva or Sketch, you'll see this icon enabling center-axis object distribution and horizontal spacing controls. It appears in design tools when aligning multiple elements to shared vertical centers, or in web design platforms like Webflow when positioning grouped objects along central axes for balanced compositions.

From a user experience perspective, the multi-object center alignment indicator communicates more than just 'move to middle' - it specifically indicates grouped object centering, balanced distribution across multiple elements, and the symmetric horizontal spacing needed for professional design layouts. This visual precision helps users understand they're creating balanced multi-object arrangements.

Align To Middle is one of 458 icons in Akar Icons, made by Arturo Wibawa and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2 stroke.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds AlignToMiddleIcon to components/icons/akar-icons-align-to-middle.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed AlignToMiddleIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Align To Middle icon, or any of 458 Akar Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.

Align To Middle is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Align To Middle", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. AlignToMiddleIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <AlignToMiddleIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Akar Icons, Arturo Wibawa and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
