It's possible, but it's not a little script. :-) I demoed a customizable button object at the last RevLive conference in Vegas. One can set the font of the text, the orientation of the text, margins, and include an icon (which orients itself as expected, as opposed to the current behavior). But this all needs to be handled as a group of objects. Features in the upcoming version of Rev will make this type of control much more practical for end
users.

I was thinking of something much simpler, just as a work-around. Something like this:

put (the height of btn 1 - the textheight of btn 1) div 2 into tMargin
set the margins of btn 1 to 0,tMargin,0,tMargin

No bells and whistles though, it just mashes the name into the center. The math may need some jiggl...um, adjustments.

:-)

Tested a bit and did some finetuning:
...
put (the height of btn 1 - the textheight of btn 1 - the effective textsize of btn 1) div 2 into tMargin
 set the margins of btn 1 to 0,tMargin,0,tMargin
...

Yours is much prettier. Everything you do is much prettier.

No doubt, but he's a graphics guy, you know?! ;-)
