Evening out

Click Distribute horizontally or Distribute vertically. The outermost two islands stay where they are, and the ones between move so the gaps between all of them are the same.

A set gap

Tick Fixed gap and type the gap, as a percentage of the 0-1 square: the islands are then spaced exactly that far apart, from the first one on.

With Align

Distribute and Align go together: line islands up along one edge, then space them evenly along it.
