Text Control Text Not Centred?

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi,

 

I have a dialog box with a text control that is being used as a title. I centred the text only to find that when the text started on a new line it was actually left justified rather than fully centred as per familiar applications.

 

So, instead of this:

My Long Title That Runs

To Two Lines

I got this:

My Long Title That Runs

To Two Lines

 

Is it possible to fully centre text in DIAdem controls?

 

Regards.

I meant to add: if you place the cursor in the text box then the centring is 'correct' (i.e. as per my expectations), but when you leave the text box the text is changed to the format I described.

Hello Simon_Aldworth,

 

If you use the setting

for the edit box it works fine on my side.

Hi Walter,

 

Thanks for your reply. Sorry to point this out but you've misread my post. I'm using a text control. Centring text in an Editbox seems to work fine but not in a Text control. I'm using 2022 Q4.

 

Regards.

Hi Simon_Aldworth,

 

You are right, I am sorry. This seems to be a bug and I will inform R&D about it. In the meantime you can use the following settings for the Edit Box to have a similar "feeling" as the Text Control.

Thanks Walter.

 

In the end I removed enough words to fit them all on one line!

 

Hope the bug gets fixed soon.

 

Regards.
