def align(**kwargs: Union[SimpleNamespace, List[SimpleNamespace]]) -> List[SimpleNamespace]:
"""
Sets delays of the objects within the block to achieve the desired alignment of the objects in the block. Aligns
objects as per specified alignment options by setting delays of the pulse sequence events within the block. All
previously configured delays within objects are taken into account during calculating of the block duration but
then reset according to the selected alignment. Possible values for align_spec are 'left', 'center', 'right'.
Parameters
----------
args : dict{str, [SimpleNamespace, ...]}
Dictionary mapping of alignment options and `SimpleNamespace` objects.
Format: alignment_spec1=SimpleNamespace, alignment_spec2=[SimpleNamespace, ...], ...
Alignment spec must be one of `left`, `center` or `right`.
Returns
-------
objects : [SimpleNamespace, ...]
List of aligned `SimpleNamespace` objects.
Raises
------
ValueError
If first parameter is not of type `str`.
If invalid alignment spec is passed. Must be one of `left`, `center` or `right`.
Examples
--------
al_grad1, al_grad2, al_grad3 = align(right=[grad1, grad2, grad3])
