I'm not sure this is possible, but I figured I'd at least ask. What I want to do is have a single stretch grip which , when stretched will also stretch the other side of the block simultaneously by the same distance, so the attributed text always stays centered.

Any ideas?

See if the following threads help...

Dynamic block stretch in both directions from one grip?

Have a good one, Mike

Add a second action to the first parameter to stretches the other side of the block. Highlight the new action and in properties, use -1 for the value of "distance multiplier" in the "overrides" tab. This will move or stretch (depending on your action) the entities the same amount in the opposite direction.
