How to align text to left of tabbedpane

I am trying to align my text in a tabbedpane and it only centers, is there a way to make the text within the tab left aligned?
Here is my code:
================
tabbedPane.addTab("Step 1/Campaign",null, new CampaignPanel(),"General Campaign Information");
tabbedPane.addTab("Step 2/MOP", null, new MOPPanel(),"Method of Payment Entry");
tabbedPane.addTab("Step 3/Shipping", null, new ShipPanel(),"Shipping Information Entry");
I have tried to use HTML in the text by <P align="left">some text</P>, but that didn't do it.
thanks
Dean
tabbedPane.addTab("Step 4/Leads", null, new LeadsPanel(),"Load and test Campaign Leads");

If you want to change the layout of the text inside a tab, one solution is to override the layoutLabel method the BasicTabbedPaneUI... it's kinda complicated so I'm hoping someone out there has a better solution.
Anyway, the line to look at in layoutLabel is:
SwingUtilities.layoutCompoundLabel(
(JComponent) tabPane,
metrics,
title,
icon,
SwingUtilities.CENTER,
SwingUtilities.CENTER,
SwingUtilities.CENTER,
//SwingUtilities.TRAILING,
SwingUtilities.CENTER,
tabRect,
iconRect,
textRect,
textIconGap);
Here you can specify where things go in the tab. Arguments 5-8 deal with the text position and text position in relation to the image.

How to Align Text in the TextArea

How to Align text in the TextArea. My purpose is that I want to post the records after retrieving from database. All the records in each fields should keep aligned like Oracle WorkSheet.
I want this way
Code Name Place City
a01 nilopher swiss street japan
a02 rozina lovely street aus
a03 benazir king's camp pitsburg
and the out put should not look like this :-
Code Name Place City
a01 nilopher swiss street japan
a02 rozina lovely street aus
a03 benazir king's camp pitsburg
here place and city records are getting disturbed accordingly the length of name.

Well, first off (if it's not default, that is) you must set a monospaced font on the TextArea, unless you want to count pixelwidth of each and every string and then do an estimate on how many fill blanks you want...
If you have the each string as a line, you use a StringTokenizer on it, extract each token, put all the tokens for that line into an array of strings.
When every line is done, you compare the length of the nth String of each array and save the highest numbers.
Then you reassemble each line from the arrays and pad in spaces where the tokens are too short.

How to align text in drawstring method

hai,
i'm using drawString method in my application. i'm using it to draw certain data in a editorpane. in that i have to align the text content but i don't know how to align the text in it such as right alignment,left alignment and center alignment...

JEditorPanes render text on their own, there shouldn't be any reason to call Graphics.drawString() on your own, unless perhaps you are creating custom Views.
In any case, we cannot help you unless you post an SSCCE .

How to align text in margin with text in document

I am using InDesign CS3 and am trying to figure out how to add text to the left of my document where there are figures and tables (so I can later create a table of figures and table of tables). I cannot get the text "Figure 1", "Figure 2", etc. to line up horizontally in the left margin with the figure I placed in the center of the document. What am I doing wrong?

> What am I doing wrong?
It's hard to say what you're doing wrong without first knowing what
you're doing. How are you trying to line up text with figures? In what
way does it not work?

How to align text at the top and bottom of a cell?

I'm making a periodic table and need help with aligning text at the top and bottom of a cell. I'll have a picture in the middle of the cell with text above and below the pic. Thank you in advance for any kind of suggestions you can give me.

It sounds as though you want to have 3 separate items inside of a single cell; text at the top of the cell, text at the bottom of the cell, and then a picture in the middle of the cell. I am no expert, but to my knowledge that is not possible (someone please correct me if I am wrong.) I also cannot figure out how to put a picture inside of a cell itself.
I do have a way to accomplish the end result so long as what you need is the final look and not a useable table in numbers.
Create 2-3 cells for each element. (The middle cell, unless you can put pictures in a cell and I don't know, would just be there for peace of mind, but would hold the picture if you can, I would just do two if the pictures are to be in front of the cell anyway.) The top cell align text to top on the Text tab of the inspector. The bottom cell, align text to bottom on the same tab. Then place the picture in the middle. Now, you have what you want except there is one or two lines dividing the cells. To get rid of this, either click the middle cell if you have one, or the top or bottom cell. Click on the Cell tab of the inspector. Select the bottom border and/or top border button and select "No Border" under border styles. To make this fast, select a full row at a time, or use command click to select all of the same type of rows (middle, top, or bottom) and change all cells at once.
I hope this helps. Best of luck!

How to align text to another text box

I am very new to Indesign and I am signed up to Lynda.com so watching few a lot of tutorials, that said I need help with aligning text.
I have a text box that is 100mm across. It has text centered. "£5"
then above this I have in a smaller font saying "from"
from
£5
I need to get the "f" of from to line up with the beginning of the £ sign? So that If I change the price to £500 the from sticks to the "£" Sign.
To explain again the from needs to align to the left of the centred text.?
Hope that make sense?
Matt

This can be done by putting the "from" text into a custom positioned anchored object just before the £ sign. You'll need to set the X coordinate relative to the anchor, and adjust the offset on both x and y to get the positioning where you want it.
I'm sure there are lessons on Anchored Objects on Lynda.com.

How to align text in Panel Box to the center

Hi,
I would like to align the text in the Panel Box to the center. Here is my code snipplet:
+<af:panelBox text="22" id="pb8"+
titleHalign="center" ramp="highlight"
background="dark"
icon="/images/warningind_active.gif"
showDisclosure="false"
contentStyle="height: 50px; width: 100%; horizontal-align:center;">
+<f:facet name="toolbar"/>+
+<af:outputText value="Update RFC with Approval Info"+
id="ot8"
inlineStyle="font-size:medium; font-weight:bold;"/>
+</af:panelBox>+
But it didn't work. The text "Update RFC with Approval Info" is still align to the left by default.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
-Mina

You can't do it without panelGroupLayout. Try this way...
        <af:panelBox text="PanelBox1" id="pb1" titleHalign="center" ramp="highlight"
            background="dark">
            <f:facet name="toolbar"/>
           <af:panelGroupLayout id="pgl1" layout="horizontal" halign="center" valign="top">
            <af:outputText value="***centered***" id="ot1"/>
           </af:panelGroupLayout>
        </af:panelBox>

How to align text within an EditText?

Hello,
using this simple one as an example:
var w = new Window('dialog');
w.preferredSize = [200,100];
w.et = w.add('edittext', void 0, "Some text");
w.et.preferredSize.height = 40;
w.show();
The "Some text" is placed top-left in the EditText - is it possible to control its alignment, i.e. ['center', 'middle']?
(just to be clear, I'm not interested in the EditText position within the Window, but just the text within the EditText itself).
Thank you!
Davide Barranca
www.davidebarranca.com

Davide, use the below example with either left, center, or right. You have to have the justify line right after the line that creates the edittext box:
#target photoshop
var dlg = new Window('dialog','test')
dlg.txt = dlg.add('edittext',undefined,'this it the text');
dlg.txt.justify = 'center'
dlg.txt.size = [200,60]
dlg.show()

How to align text vertically?

This seems like it should be really easy: On a simple text slide, how do I align multiple lines of text vertically? Do I have to eyeball it, or is there a way to fix it exactly in the center, top to bottom?

Hi -
There is no automatic way, but there is a way to make it slightly easier.
After you enter your text, grab the clip of type and move it to a portion of the timeline where there are no other clips.
In the Canvas click on the button on the top right and select Checkerboard:
!http:/www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/CanvasCheckerboardBG.jpg!
This will make the background a checkerboard so you can count the squares to verify the top and bottom line are equidistant from the TV Safe Guidelines:
!http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/CanvasCheckerBoardExample.jpg!
When you are done positioning the type, grab the clip and place it above the clip you originally wanted it to appear over.
You can either leave the Canvas set to display a checkerboard when there is no video present, or switch it back to Black.
Hope this helps.

How to align text paragraphs with caption text boxes

Hello,
Im moving from QuarkXpress to InDesign, and Im setting up styles, templates, libraries, etc...
The issue Im having is that when I add an image with a text caption box in one of the columns, the text that wraps around the caption text box, no longer aligns to the other columns, its off. I can't get it to realign to the other columns.
Any help is appreciated.

1. Is the leading of your caption the same as the body text? If not, you have to choose to align the top of the first line (slightly jarring) or bottom of the last line.
2. It appears to me you have the caption vertically centred. That will make it far harder.
To make it feasible to do manually, you can set the caption box text frame to start at offset "Leading", move the text frame to start exactly at the bottom of the image, and make sure all your images' heights are multiples of your leading. Group the caption frame and the caption box to make moving around easier.
"Align to baseline" would be a good option, except that I find it too constricting on the entire rest of my designs (viz. the already observed "jump per entire line only"). One way around that is to set up your baseline grid to half, 1/3, or 1/4 of your leading. That way you have at least some control left over inter-paragraph whitespace, and you can still manually drag your images and have them snap to the closest "actual" baseline.

How to align text in boolean pushbutton

Okay, this is about as simple a question as one can post on here and MAN do I feel stupid asking this...but, here goes! I have a boolean pushbutton and I want to move the button text towards the left. My problem is I'm having a heck of a time grabbing and moving just the text. 99% of the time my cursor grabs and moves the whole button, but all I want to do is move the text around. I've done it successfully a couple of times, but most of the time I can't select just the text. What's the secret??

Thanks! I haven't messed with Labview in over 5 years and I'm rusty as can be. Every time I moved the cursor inside the pushbutton it would change to the little hand, and I was going nuts trying to remember how to select and move just the text. I have a lot of cobwebs to clean out!
