text-alignment

I`ve got a GtkLabel whose text is to remain centered regardless of whether it is shorter or longer than the label. For example, a Win32 static control that has the SS_CENTER style flag set behaves like that: ┌===========================┐ │ Lorem ipsum dolor │ └===========================┘ — when the text is shorter than the control; ┌===========================┐ Lorem ipsum│dolor sit amet, consectetur│adipiscing └===========================┘ — when the text is longer than the control. N.B.: The only part of the text seen by the user is inside the frame. I expected GtkLabel -s to do the same

In Qt's implementation arabic notation is shown in right-to-left direction, thus any strings that contain arabic notations will be right-aligned. But what my application wants to do is showing all texts in left-to-right direction, whether it contains arabic notations or not. And all texts are left-aligned. An example is shown below: This is what I want to implement This is how QLineEdit displays texts containing arabic notations in its default way This is how QLabel does it EDIT: Paste the test string here. ە抠门哥ە( EDIT: Providing an alternate solution. Finally I can achieve my goal roughly by

I have multiple divs with a fixed width containing <p> tags which contain various lengths of text. I want this text to remain left-aligned but if the text does not take up as much space as the div width, I would like to align this text centrally. I assume the best way of achieving this would be to horizontally center the <p> within the div while keeping the text left-aligned but I'm not sure how to do this. I have tried setting margin:0 auto; but the <p> always resizes to the width of the div (unless I tell it otherwise, but I don't want to do this because if the text runs for longer than the

I'm having a problem left-aligning a UIButton 's text. I also tried changing it to .Right but it still stays centered. I also tried aButton.imageEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 20, bottom: 0, right: 0) instead of aButton.titleLabel?.textAlignment = .Left but that doesn't change anything either. Is there an alternative way to programmatically change the alignment of a UIButton title's? allButtonViews = UIView(frame: CGRectMake(0, 44, 100, 100)) allButtonViews.backgroundColor = .redColor() let campusButton = UIButton(type: UIButtonType.System) as UIButton aButton.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0,

I want to let it looks like this: | two | | lines | Here is the current layout, not working at all. <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="center_vertical"> <TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="two\nlines" android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" android:layout_centerInParent="true"/> </RelativeLayout> Any idea? Thanks! kcoppock If you just want to center it (I'm assuming the \n is working to split the lines), just add android:gravity="center_horizontal" rather than

I'm trying to make a table like this.... (Just without the dots I used to separate the each item) Weekly Payroll: Name.....................Title.......Gross......Tax......Net Ebenezer Scrooge Partner 250.00 ..62.25 .187.75 Bob Cratchit ..........Clerk ......15.00 ....2.00 ..13.00 This is what my code looks like for this part.... for (int count=0; count < numberOfEmployees; count++) { cout << "Employee: \n"; cout << "\t Name: "; cin.getline (employees[count].name, EMPLOYEESIZE); cout << "\t Title: "; cin.getline (employees[count].title, EMPLOYEESIZE); cout << "\t SSNum: "; cin >> employees

I am using Bootstrap alerts and this is my success alert message: <div class="alert alert-success" id="UploadSuccess"> <a class="close" data-dismiss="alert">×</a> <strong>Congrats!</strong> You have successfully did it!. </div> And the result is: As you'll can see that the text alignment is at the top of the <div> . So, how would II align it to the middle? I have tried using padding-top and vertical-align:middle but neither works (I end up with the same result). What do I need to do to change the vertical alignment of the text? Make the line-height of the div the same as the height of the div,
