There are marker line overlays when “snapping” to another element:

Or when aligning to the screen itself:

Other tips for aligning elements:

1. Use a shape as a “container” in the background beneath the elements you are wishing to align

2. Try to “snap” elements where possible.

If you have an example of something you need help with I can be more specific on tips 🙂
