I have a JPanel with some JLabel added with the add() method of JPanel. I want to align the JLabel to the right like the image below but I don't know how to do that. Any Idea? Thanks! This can be done in two ways. JLabel Horizontal Alignment You can use the JLabel constructor : JLabel(String text, int horizontalAlignment) To align to the right: JLabel label = new JLabel("Telephone", SwingConstants.RIGHT); JLabel also has setHorizontalAlignment : label.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.RIGHT); This assumes the component takes up the whole width in the container. Using Layout A different

My question is very simple: how can I center a text on a PDF, using PDFBox ? I don't know the string in advance, I can't find the middle by trial. The string doesn't always have the same width. I need either: A method that can center the text, something like addCenteredString(myString) A method that can give me the width of the string in pixels. I can then calculate the center, for I know the dimensions of the PDF. Any help is welcome! SteeveDroz Ok, I found the answer myself. Here is how to center some text on a page: String title = "This is my wonderful title!"; // Or whatever title you want

I have a program that create TextFields inside a PDF-file so it can be used as a form. I would like to have the text I write in the TextFields I created to be centered though. How is that possible? My code currently looks like this: PDTextField textBox = new PDTextField(acroForm); textBox.setPartialName("Field " + j + " " + i); defaultAppearanceString = "/Helv 8 Tf 0 g"; //Textsize: 8 textBox.setDefaultAppearance(defaultAppearanceString); acroForm.getFields().add(textBox); PDAnnotationWidget widget = textBox.getWidgets().get(0); PDRectangle rect = new PDRectangle(inputField.getX(), inputField

I can use text-align="middle" on a text element to center text. Actually this only works nice for the x-direction. For the y-direction I use the hack of Ian G in question Aligning text in SVG . But what can I do, if a want to center a text in the y-direction, but want to left-align the text in x-direction? For example, I have a rect -element and a text -element positioned right of it. The text should be vertically aligned to appear centered in relation to the rect. Therefore I use the text-align="middle" property. But I want to left-align the text in the x-direction (since I want to display it

print('%24s' % "MyString") # prints right aligned print('%-24s' % "MyString") # prints left aligned How do I print it in the center? Is there a quick way to do this? I don't want the text to be in the center of my screen. I want it to be in the center of that 24 spaces. If I have to do it manually, what is the math behind adding the same no. of spaces before and after the text? Use the new-style format method instead of the old-style % operator, which doesn't have the centering functionality: print('{:^24s}'.format("MyString")) You can use str.center() method. In your case, it will be:

I have the following data frame in R: > dframe Mean Median Candidates 85.68 60 NonCands 9.21 4 Multi 27.48 17 Mono 4.43 3 Multi NonCands 22.23 15 I want to print it into a file and keep it nicely formatted and aligned just as shown above. I use: write.table(dframe,file="test",sep="\t", quote=F) which produces the following output: Mean Median Candidates 85.68 60 NonCands 9.21 4 Multi 27.48 17 Mono 4.43 3 Multi NonCands 22.23 15 Since the data is displayed properly formatted within the R environment I thought it should be trivial to write it to a file with the same format. Apparently I was
