Vertical Alignment of Text

Markbhai — Thu, 11 Apr 2024 09:26:04 GMT

Morning!

Is it possible to align text vertically in a text box? - In my example below I would like the tite to be centrally aligned vertically as well as horizontally.

Thanks

Mark.

@Markbhai
You can try something by image in the text box, see below:

Thanks Matheus, by this do you mean:

1. Create an Image of the text to be displayed

2. Place the image inside a 'Text and Image' custom object.

BTW what I was actually wanting to achieve by Vertical Alignments was something like this:

Ok, so try this inside the expression to align the text and then apply the center:

Thanks Matheus,

That does the trick.

Whilst the above solution from Matheus is working, I found it difficult to get the right sized text. I have found a different solution which allows some additional formatting.

Add a Multi KPI control to your sheet.

Add

='Your Text'

as an expression in the Measure and tggle the 'Hide Lable'

In Style, make it Centre Aligned

In Measures select the size of your text (I have Mini).

Thanks
