System Variable for Text Justification


Recommended Posts

Posted

Can someone tell me if there is a system variable that will enable me to toggle on and off the text justification when I mirror text? For example - I have a table with text on the left side of each row. Each text is justified "Middle Right". When I mirror this table I then want the text to be on the right side of my table but justified "Middle Left". Currently when I mirror the justification remains as it was.

 

Can someone help?

 

Thanks

Mike

I'm not aware of any. You can change the properties of multiple objects all at once using the properties palette. Is that any help?

Thanks Pablo. I currently use the properties palette to adjust the text after I mirror it. I was hoping to save a step by finding a system variable.

As far as I am aware 'MIRRTEXT' allows you to mirror the text, TroutKing wants to keep the text reading from left to right, but mirror the justification.

 

Possibly a good question for a Lisp Wizard...

I've just done a quick check.........

 

DTEXT will mirror, but justification remains the same.

 

MTEXT mirrors text and justification.

BoneHead, you are completly right, but TroutKing's text is in a table. I've just done a quick check, and I couldn't even get the table to mirror!

A good point well made Pablo, I'd completely ignored that bit of information. :oops:

 

You're right, I just tried it myself with a table. Very odd indeed.
