Merry Christmas, hope you all have a great time.

I have a problem creating text in a layout from MB.

I would like to use (x1, y1, x2, y2) in a Create Text statement so that the
text created is centred within these co-ords.

Below is an extract from help (Create Text Statement) explaining this is not
possible.

The x1, y1, x2, and y2 arguments define a rectangular area. When you create
text in a Map window, the text fills the rectangular area, which controls
the text height; the point size specified in the Font clause is ignored. In
a Layout window, text is drawn at the point size specified in the Font
clause, with the upper-left corner of the text placed at the (x1, y1)
location; the (x2, y2) arguments are ignored.


Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get around this?

TIA and have a great Christmas


Scott.
