:) Hello !

• Select a spotted area where you wish to place the text before to get the dialogue, then place the text into that area…
- Your text comes attached to the cursor ! Place it and click !
- You could use the grid to spot the exact location.

Well how THICK of you.

I thought it was obvious I meant multi-line text blocks!

1. Where do you see "block" ?
2. The crystal balls are getting unobtainable nowadays…
3. Please, choose better epithets about the members here.

• One line or whatever, that doesn't change anything,
there is no feature to place the text automatically exactly centred or right¦left justified.

Using <cntl>-<return> for hard line breaks you can create multi-line text blocks.

I just want the option to make them other than flush left.

How?

Like Clo said already above, there is no option currently for that you need.
You might post this as a request in the “Suggestions” section.

If the Author has some hidden INI entry in his pocket for such a case, he'll inform you.
But till today, I don't know such an entry.

SO? Flush left, center and right are a rudimentary text function, similar to "Add Text..." font selection, size and color.

I know xnview isn't a word processor but Add Text... should implement this function by default for needed caption alignment. You get the idea.

I guess it's not been a requested feature for so long that it's not worth implementing?

This is a suggestion worth while considering.

Moved to "Suggestions".
