In my opinion, the alignment guides are one of the best things about OmniGraffle. Unfortunately, they seem to only lock to an edge or center of an object. I have constructed a composite object (an electronic part) which has several leads, some of which are not at the center or edge. I would still like the alignment guides to lock to these leads.

I tried making a composite object consisting of the object plus the leads. If I don't group these, the alignment works the way I want: it locks to the leads. However, if I group the leads with the object, this no longer works. Of course I need to group things so that I can place my composite object into a stencil. Does anyone know how I can do this?

Thanks.
