Align distribute center doesn't work
Trying to use Align>Distribute center with Align to Selection selected - on a group of elements.
Elements arent distributed symmetrically but seem to randomly distribute, some elements very close together and others very far apart. Same issue has been repeating since updating to 23.0.1. Working on MacOS Mojave 10.14.
For example the attached 3 elements were aligned with horizontal center distribution, but the center object moved close to the left text block.

There's a comment on this thread (by Ron) with a solution that worked for me: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-bugs/suggestions/40799728--horizontal-distribute-buttons-broken-in-illustra?tracking_code=0adc1486a76f2ce4a947c53265f1af8e
Basically, chances are the setting on your object alignment switched from "Align to Selection" to "Align to Key Object." When I switched it back to "Align to Selection" everything works fine for me.

Having the same issue as Arvind. Vertical and Horizontal distribute command results in align center. Version 24.2.3.

I've noticed an issue with specific fonts. I had this issue with Alexander Quill, it threw the object outside the artboard when I tried to distribute it. To work around this, I had to change the font to a similar size, distribute, and then change the font back.
