TIETextLayer.Alignment

Declaration

property Alignment: TIEAlignment;

Description

Specifies the text alignment.

Note:
◼iejJustify is unsupported for TIETextLayers
◼iejCenter is recommended when BorderShape is not iesRectangle or iesRoundRect

Note: This property is not used if rich text formatting is enabled

Default: iejLeft
