Text alignment end-to-end

AV82 — Mon, 07 Mar 2022 14:08:23 GMT

Hi all

Is there a way to align text end-to-end, inside the text box?

Please see attached photo what i mean.

This is something we can do in Autocad.

Thank you very much.

You want the 'justify' justification.

Ahh, it seems you can't use carriage returns for this to work.

That doesn't really help when you have different size fonts because it wraps lines based on the width of your text box as you can't use carriage returns.

I think you are close to solve this 🙂
How do we stretch one small word (or small font) to be as long as bigger one? (attached photo)

Something you did in your example (screenshot) but with one word.

If you can do it with one word i think you will solve my problem 🙂

Thank you.

You can stretch the width of text characters and/or the spacing between them.

But it affect the entire text block - you can't edit the width of individual pieces of text like you can for font, colour, size.

I found when I made a change tot he value I had to toggle the justification to something else and then back again.

But that may just be my machine playing up - it is due for a restart.
