KevinRAmbrose 0 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I like the new multiline label capabilities with X8, when I label beams, is there any way to center justify the text? Link to post Share on other sites
LevisL 108 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Not yet. Hope they add that in X9. The best you can do for now is add spaces to the start of the shorter line to manually justify. Link to post Share on other sites
Joe_Carrick 2514 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Actually, if you use a User Macro you can format the entire label to be centered. You just need to use the method ".center(20)" for each line. You will also need to use "\n" where you want a line feed. Basically something like this: result = line1.center(20) + "\n" + line2.center(20) Link to post Share on other sites
