Brian,
It works based on number of characters in the text.
When I use geometry as 0/0:50%x100%:100, it does not place text at
0(zero'th) pixel if the
- text has less number of characters (say 4 characters)
- text alignment is right
What I need is, I need to place text at any position on the frame
with any number of characters and with center, left and right alignments.
I was trying to specify X position in geometry for center alignment as
follows
- *X = Xposition - ( frameWidth - textWidth ) / 2*
- Y = 0
- W = 100%
- H = 100%
For example, if
Xposition = 0 ( text should be placed at 0 (zero'th) pixel)
frameWidth = 854
textWidth = 285
Now, X will be -284 and geometry will be *-284/0:100%x100%*
If I want place the same text with center alignment at 100 th pixel (
Xposition = 100 ) on the frame then geometry will be *-184/0:100%x100%*
For right alignment, *X = Xposition - ( frameWidth - textWidth )*
*
*
If I could get X value using these formulas, I think text is being placed
close to required position.
For this the thing what I need is, textWidth and it varies from number of
characters.
Is there any way to get value of text width ?
Thank you,
