Entered text alignment in middle, not top left...how to fix?

I have a text field that's about .5" tall. When a user enters information into the field the entered content begins in the middle of the area. As they enter more information the center alignment seems to go away and the text moves up to simulate top left alignment (the field has expand to fit on also). So, 1) do I have to make the cell smaller for it to have top left alignment and subsequently throwing off the look of the form or 2) is there a way to get the cell to have top left alignment?
Thanks for any help!

You can align the input to top, middle or bootom as well as right, left or center. These settings are contained on the font palette. The palette is probably not visible to you, so go to the Window Menu and turn the font palette on (or hit the shift F4 shortcut key). Now click on th eobject you want to align and look at the Font palette. Jsut below the Tabs is a line that says what you are editinng (by default it is set to caption and value). Change it to edit just the value. Now you can set the alignment by clicking on the paragraph tab and choosing the options that you want.

    That file might have moved to a different location on the server. I think you'll need to check with RefWorks support or your local IT department on why the install page links do not work.

    Restore the iPhone as new.
    Have the other iPhone users delete the current message thread, and start a new messae to you.
    Have the other iPhone users delete your contact, then re-add it.
    Go to ww.icloud.com and remove the device from your Find My iPhone.
    Go to appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and/or password.
    Contact Apple Support at getsupport.apple.com for further assistance if these steps don't work.
    Wait about 30 days for the iMessage server to self-correct the issue.

    Dear Pat,
    Thank you for your reply!
    I will contact support from the site..
    And the problem with the youtube videos is even more "complicated"!! I'm posting here the sites with the problem. I have a kind request for those who use Windows 8 and read my message here: please, try these sites and tell me and if you can watch these videos! It's very strange because I get the message " The uploader has not made this video available in your country" . But some other people, from my country, even from my city, can watch the same videos which I cannot see!!! 
    If anyone has an ideea why this is happening to me, maybe I have to do something, change some settings, etc..,   please, leave a message for me!
    Many thanks in advance! All my best wishes for you for 2013!

  • Block of text to fill screen... starts in middle not top

    I am trying to create a text-generator clip that includes a lot of copyright/credits info, and I want to fill the screen with it, top to bottom, left to right. When I enter all the txt in a text generator (Controls), and then look at the Video display, the top line of text is starting in the MIDDLE of the screen and I cannot move the bottom crop bar bigger.
    HOW do I fill a screen with text? I want to simply fade in - fade out on a large block of text that "has to be there."

    Moving the center raises the first line of text... that would work, if all my text could fit in the lower half of a frame...
    The problem is that I cannot start with text anywhere in the top half of a the frame--that I know of.
    Similarly, if I enter text that falls onto two lines, the first line is centere vertically, while the second sits below it. If I want both lines centeres, I have to MOVE the center of the frame. It doesn;t make sense to me that there is not a way to vertically center EVREYTHING I type.

  • Align page to the top left ?

    Hi everyone !
    First of all all my thanks to this great forum, it solved lots of questions in advance.
    Here´s one I couldn´t find an answer to:
    Most of the internet pages I know don´t have the page automatically centered in the browser, but have it aligned
    to the top left. So that on openinig the page you hardly ever
    see the browser background. Only if increasing browser size the background will come up on the bottom and left.
    I know that the iweb behaviour of placing the page automatically center can´t be altered easily, but maybe there is a way to do this via html ?
    Thanks for the answer !

    iweb ! Ok, so I should try to see the page source,
    find the text about window/browser placement and do
    what people do, who can read and write Jawa/html. Hm
    LOL! many people had tried to look at my page source and didn't see much there.
    I´m afraid that´s not me, but maybe you can point me
    to the lines to alter ? Besides: iweb´s behavior of
    There is no need to look for the code, iWeb code is very structural so adding the following line to the end of your page (after /html>) will do the job:
    <script type="text/javascript">document.getElementById('body_content').style.marginLeft = '0px';</script>
    Do not add the above to HTML code if you use .mac blog and its commenting system. Alter (.mac blog) HTML will potentially mess it up.

  • Objects and text cannot be moved from top left

    I just merged my website from some other drag and drop editor to DW.
    I am determined to learn how to work everything (Or at least enough to get by).
    But I have hit a snag along my learning path, and am hoping it is something simple.
    I am trying to add text, and graphics. And it would seem I cannot simply drag it around the page like in other designers? Because it defaults to the top left of my page, and cannot be moved by dragging. On the images, when I edit the tag, I was able to change the virtical and horizontal attributes and place the image where I wanted it. but text I add has no such option.
    I would post you the code, but I don't know which piece to post.
    Forgive me, I am very novice, having no experience with html, and less than a week experience with DW.
    But I learn quickly, and with your patience, even quicker.
    Thank you so much!

    You need to get a grasp of the basics. Dragging and dropping into DW will not place things where you want.  I just noticed that ZaBeth posted this in another post, start here, then find some other beginner CSS and HTML tutorials.
    Have a look at David Powers's CSS book. It is very accessible and easy to get into: http://gettingstartedwithcss.com/ (palgerized from ZaBeth69)
    And keep reading this board, there are alot of new comers that post very basic questions, so you get some good information here.
