    The most recent version finally has the Object > Distribute menu added.

    Now both Align and Distribute commands can be accessed via menu and have assigned keyboards shortcuts to them.


    The order of the commands though seemingly matches the one the panel has: horizontal first for Align and vertical first for Distribute. If you find this odd and want to change it — vote here: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-desktop-feature-requests/suggestions/45855823-sync-the-order-of-align-and-distribute-menu-comman


    Also, Align To and Distribute Spacing commands are still missing in top menus, so please keep voting here to make them added too.

    oh my YES! PLEASE ADOBE allow us to be able to assign keyboard shortcuts to the object align command. It feels extremely clunky trying to get anything done in Illustrator vs CorelDraw. Having grown up on Adobe I never thought of it. Got a job using Corel for the past 6 years, hardly ever opening .ai and when I need to it's always a pain doing things because I know it can be done so much faster. Came here looking for answers and saddened there is still no fix to this day.
