Align Text Labels AC19

I'm sure I have seen a demo of how to align text labels in ArchiCAD 19 but for the life of me I cannot find it on Youtube or any mention of it on this forum.

Anyone able to point me in the right direction or is it my memory playing up?

Do you mean aligning the text inside the label?
When you edit the text you get this palet to tweak the text.

No I mean when you have a number of Labels that you want to align. I seem to remember that you can now align the text but not effect the pointer/arrowheads

You mean moving the box of the text label?
Just select the box pick it up and move it around.

Ah but when you have a lot of them it would be nice to get the computer to align them for you eg. this little lot....

Ok sussed it you use the adjust command, then the text blocks align to the vector you show it. So simple!
