Align objects to a first object without the first object moving

I have several objects on a front panel that I want to align with one another.  One object should keep its original position and the others should be aligned to it.  Is there a way to do this?  The normal method of alignment seems to move all the objects, including the one that I want to retain its original position.  I tried locking the object that isn't supposed to move, but then I can't seem to align to it anymore.

If you want to align them to a side (top, bottom, left, right), make sure the base object is the outermost in that direction.
For center alignment I don't think such a feature is available.
