Text justification

[Bryan O]

I'm playing with my title block layouts and I cant figure out how to Center/Center justify the text in a given space.

Any tips

The "bounding box" of the text has to have it's center positionned at the center of the rectangle you want it centered at.

In the attached images you can see the bounding box IS center/center but the resulting text is NOT.
I'm at a loss.
I have tried anchoring the box and that doesn't help....

That's odd, it seems to works for us

Do you put them in as a text field or note?

I'm not quite sure I understand the distinction..?

I'm not sure there is a difference! LOL

Can you upload your template?

For some reason it would not allow me to attach it as a .drwdot so I changed the extension to .txt.

OK It is center top justifying!
But it is also doing something interesting. It is recognizing and NOT recognizing spaces!
It is breaking the name "ConfigurationConfiguration Configuration Configuration" into
"ConfigurationConfiguratio
n ConfigurationConfiguration"
That is fine. I can live with that.

Thanks for your help!

The "n" dropped off because it didn't fit in the width of your text box and there was no space before it to use as a break. Make the character size smaller or the box bigger, and it will break on the first space.
