realigning
Fixing the positioning
Realigning is the present participle of realign, meaning to adjust or restore proper alignment.
Mechanical parts are realigned when they've shifted out of position: The technician is realigning the satellite dish.
Political parties realign when coalitions shift: The election triggered a realigning of voter demographics.
The word often suggests correction—bringing something back to where it should be.
