Movements allowed in a ZOC are pretty clear.
One option is to wheel in order to move closer and align.

Z is a unit starting in the ZOC of enemy A it wants to double wheel to position Y.

ZZZ

_YYY

AAA

1) So does the word Align mean corner to corner and parallel?

I had a more complicated question, but I had been overlooking the word "align" which may resolve a lot of interpreted correctly.

It's impossible to do that !

Unit Z is in ZOC by unit A. It can only charge unit A, advance strait away to close unit A (front against front, Z can't present his flank to unit A) or wheel to finish align tu unit Z. Or turn to leave the Zoc (1/4 or 1/2 turn and an advance straight away)

ZOC are a pressure on a unit.

You can't double wheel to like you show it :With a wheel or with wheels in one move, no unit can do more than 90°. If you want to do more you must make an 1/4 ou 1/2 turn with eventually a wheel

Or make a another move...

So you are saying.

If a unit starts to align in a ZOC, it must use 100% of its movement to align. i.e. you cannot choose to just become somewhat more aligned.

Obviously it can charge and then conform.

First of all I didn't understand really your first example... Sorry... I understood that you want unit Z to present it's flank...

You can't double wheel or wheel in a ZOC... Except for align to unit front. Even for charging A , unit Z can't wheel. But it must conform after the contact.
