You can accomplish things like this with Text Measurement. Here's an
example using the Frodo Travel tutorial:
// CHANGE THIS TO THE WIDTH OF YOUR FRAME
var FrameWidth = 3 * 7200;
// CHANGE THIS TO WHATEVER LINES YOU HAVE
var Lines = [ Field("Name"), "Welcome to", Field("Destination") ];
var tm = new FusionProTextMeasure;
// CHANGE THESE TO MATCH YOUR TEXT ATTRIBUTES
tm.pointSize = "12 pt";
tm.font = "Arial";
tm.bold = true;
tm.useTags = false;
var LargestWidth = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < Lines.length; i++)
{
if (tm.CalculateTextExtent(Lines[i]))
return "***ERROR***: " + tm.messages;
var LineWidth = tm.textWidth;
if (LineWidth > LargestWidth)
LargestWidth = LineWidth;
}
var LineIndent = FrameWidth - LargestWidth;
var result = "";
for (var i = 0; i < Lines.length; i++)
{
result += "<p findent=" + LineIndent + ">";
result += NormalizeEntities(Lines[i]) + "\n";
}
return result;
