How to fully justify text?

Anonymous

I have placed text onto my master layout but I only see an option for left justification.

Is "Full Justification" possible in archicad?

Yes, the Alignment field of the Text tool offer all 4 justification methods. Select the Text Block and the Alignment field is available both in the Info Box and the Text Settings Dialog.

Laszlo, the option is there, but I can't get it to work. Can you? (Other 3 options work fine.)

It only justifies if the text is longer than the available space. On image below the heading has a Return at the end of it, so does not justify.

It does work unless you add a carriage return (enter) at the end of a sentence.
If you do that then that last part of the sentence will not stretch at all.
Not sure how you are supposed to start a new line without adding a carriage return.

Actually looking at it closer it is not the carriage return at all.
Only the text that automatically wraps is justified both sides.
The end of a line (or if the line is too short) will not justify both sides.
