Text Alignment

Hey all,

so under the directory "T:\Projects\projectsv12\APACHE\VARANUS\variso\std" i have an isometric option file. (a few actually).
is there a way to justify and/or align the text to middle and centre?
coz when you position an attribute text it has only the pos and the character height:
TextPosition :PROJECT_TITLE X 400mm Y 27mm CharHeight 3.5mm

In draft you would put:
JUST Centre
ALIGN HBODY

Any thoughts?

Add next function (with name aligniso.pmlfnc) into your pmllib:

define function !!aligniso (!inputtext is string, !x is real, !y is real, !charheig is real, !alignparam is string)
    !align = !alignparam.upcase()
    !z = !charheig * 0.7
    !l = !inputtext.length()
    if !align eq |R| then
        !x1 = !x -!l * !z
    elseif !align eq |C| then
        !x1 = !x - ( !l / 2 ) * !z
    else
        !x1 = !x
    endif
    !output = |TextPosition '$!inputtext' X $!x1 Y $!y charheight $!charheig|
   $!output
endfunction

In Option file use !!aligniso ('Project Title', 400,27,3.5, 'r'), instead of TextPosition ':PROJECT_TITLE' X 400mm Y 27mm CharHeight 3.5mm

'r' - for right just

'c' - for center just

and '' - for left just
