Centered text in dynamic blocks

[kwong]

Hi all,
I've seen threads on this before but can't seem to find them - I have a rectangular box that's stretchable horizontally to accommodate text which I want to be justified middle centre. How would I do that ? Thanks.

Hi

Below is one result obtained from a quick forum search (http://forums.augi.com/search.php?) (there are others) -

how do you link a move parameter to a stretch parameter (http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?t=19014)

Have a good one, Mike

Thanks Mike,
Found it, now all I've got to do is try & understand how it's done.
Just had a go at doing what Mike Douglas suggested, and it worked with a little circle, but not with the text attribute. Any ideas?

Does the attribute have the Locked setting enabled from the properties palette? Otherwise it wont budge.

Have a read of the Readme file for A2006SP1.
I think it implies that this is a problem that has now been fixed.

hi, this is what did: I simply added move action on each linear parameter, and don't forget to change move action properties distance multiplier to 0.5
