Left justify text in book's introduction page?

I don't find any way to left justify the text on "introduction" pages when making a book. Am I missing it, or am I restricted to centered text?

Actually, I discovered that if I create the text in Word, then paste it in, it retains the alignment set in Word, even if different from the template. At least it worked in Classic.

  • Customize text on Book Album Master Page?

    How can I change the text style of the text in a metadata text box on a Book Album Master Page, other than selecting from the limited choices in the "Set Text Style" drop-down list?  I would like to customize the font family, size, and color.
    I am working with a Custom Theme (having given up on modifying the existing themes).
    I can change the text parameters applied to the text boxes on the Master Page, but those changes are not applied to the text boxes based on that Master Page (even after reapplying the Master).  Those changes _are_ "held" by the text boxes on the Master Page, however.
    Thanks!

    With Metadata Boxes, when I select the box in "Edit Layout" mode, no changes made via the Fonts dialog are applied.
    The metadata boxes seem to be built rigidly into the themes.
    Assuming that is correct  , is there any way to add to or modify the styles shown in the "Set Text Style" drop-down?
    I have not tried to change the behaviour. There is a list of textstyles for the custom book template inside the Aperture Application bundle:  
    /Applications/Aperture.app/Contents/Resources/CustomBookTemplate/TextStyles.plis t
    When I open this file in Xcode I am seeing a list of fonts for Title, Cover Title, etc.
    The EXIF properties are formatted in
    /Applications/Aperture.app/Contents/Resources/CustomBookTemplate/TextStyles.plis t
    Probably you could create a new custom template by creating a copy of /Applications/Aperture.app/Contents/Resources/CustomBookTemplate  and editing these files in the copy, but as I said, I never tried this.

  • Left justify text in number field

    Hi,
    I would be grateful if someone could tell me how to display the text (returned from a loop) in a number field
    so that it is left justified - also where would it have to be set?
    The 'justification' setting when set to 'Left' doesn't achieve this.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Tom

    First i dont think so in Number field u can set TEXT
    Create a field with CHAR type and u can put alpha numeric text in it
    set the justification Property of Text item to Start or Left

  • FCP title tool - left justified text

    I'm just generating basic titles within FCP using the built in title tool (not Motion or Live), and need to make some left justified title cards. Centering the text works fine, everything fits on screen. But, when I select "left" justification, the font STARTS in the center of the screen and I lose the last few words off the right side of the screen! When I try to move the font with wireframe, I can place the text manually where I want it, but the words are still cut off on the right side. I know there must be a simple solution to this... right?

    Don't move the text by using the wireframe. This just moves the whole layer and you will see the text being but at the border. You need to use the "Origin" parameter to position the text.

  • Justify text still doesn't work correctly in Pages 2.0.1

    Justify text does not work in Pages 2 or 2.0.1 when one wishes to specify where the lines should break. It used to work in Pages 1 by using <SHIFT-RETURN>. Does anyone know a workaround?
    Thanks.

    Hello John,
    this is because of the "sero point" where the calculation between the "text paragraph align" settings and the ruler differ. In "left aligned" and "justified" the calculation begins from the left, similar to the ruler, so all works fine. But in "centered" and "right aligned" the calculation begins from the center or from the right, but the ruler calculation is in both cases from left to right.
    This is a limitation of the overall system. To get this right, the ruler has to change it's calculation direction by setting "centered" and "right aligned", too. But you continue writing from left to right, so what about the inversion of the "left" and "right aligned" tab stops?
    I don't know if you have done this, but you can send a feedback to the developer with some suggestions about this: http://www.apple.com/feedback/pages.html

  • Microsoft Word Documents Left Justified on Web Pages

    I have a church web site created with iWeb 08. I've been taking sermon outlines from Microsoft Word, copying the text, and pasting it in iWeb. This has been working fine in the past. The Word formatting copies over fine and the indents show up correctly in iWeb and on the web pages being viewed with Safari, Firefox, or IE in Windows.
    Within the last month, something has happened. All the sermons are now left justified on the church website, when viewed with any of the browsers. It still looks okay in iWeb 08 though. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, were you able to correct it?

    A lot has changed with Apple's hosting servers and software in the last couple of weeks due to the MobileMe changeover and it's not surprising that some things don't work as they once did. It takes little effort to click on the text box in the iWeb page and select the justification you need.
    Another way to add the Word page is to take a screenshot of it and add it as an image file. That way all browsers and platforms will see it exactly the same, particularly if you're using a non web safe font.

  • Left justify pages within browser background

    How can I left justify my web pages within the browser background? All the iWeb templates that I have seen are center justified, and I cannot find a way to change the justification.

    There is no tool in iWeb that will do it at the click of a button.
    If you lasso all of your elements you can move them to the left hand side of the page. Either by dragging or by using the cursor keys, (holding the shift key makes each cursor key press 10 pixels instead of one).
    Then you can left justify the text in each element by using, Inspector>Text Tab>Text - Color & Alignment.

  • Preview app: Add text annotation with left justify?

    I'm using the Preview app to insert text into some PDF files. I can use the Annotate feature to create a text box in the area I need it and adjust the font, color, size, etc. The only thing I can't seem to do is set the justification to Left Justify. It will show text as center justify - anyone know how to change this?

    I can find out what the defaults are with:
    defaults read com.apple.preview
    There are many properties but a TextAligment property is not one of them.
    I tried below but they do not work.
    defaults write com.apple.preview NSTextAlignment 0
    defaults write com.apple.preview PVAnnotationTextAlignment 0
    NB: 0 means left alignment
    Any idea?
    Maybe Apple has to create an text alignment feature for the GUI or provide the property that we can set it from Terminal.

  • How do I left justify the text in the tabs of a JTabbedPane.

    In 1.3.1 this used to work by supplying an HTML string with <div align="left"> but when I run with 1.4.1 this is now broken and I get center justification.
    Does anybody know a way to get the text in the tabs to be left justified.
    Thanks,
    Philip

    First, I found while using JTabbedPane that the "standard" behavior is to allow to a tab the exact space needed to display the tab text. Hence with this behavior, there is actualy no difference of "left" or "center" aligned text. So I assumed that you found a way or another to make your tabs wider than the "string width"...
    Here is a solution:
    You can override the TabbedPaneUI class and ajust the "layoutLabel()" method. Here is the code..
    //Your code using the tabbedPane
    JTabbedPane tp = new JTabbedPane();
    tp.setUI(new LeftTabbedPaneUI());
    //File containing the overrided TabbedPaneUI
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import java.util.*;
    import javax.swing.text.View;
    class LeftTabbedPaneUI extends javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalTabbedPaneUI {
            //I also overrided this function just to force tabs wider than
            //the displayed "String Width". I asume that you found another
            //way to do this so you can delete this function in your
            //implementation
         protected int calculateTabWidth(int tabPlacement, int tabIndex, FontMetrics metrics){
              return 150;
        protected void layoutLabel(int tabPlacement,
                                   FontMetrics metrics, int tabIndex,
                                   String title, Icon icon,
                                   Rectangle tabRect, Rectangle iconRect,
                                   Rectangle textRect, boolean isSelected ) {
            textRect.x = textRect.y = iconRect.x = iconRect.y = 0;
         View v = getTextViewForTab(tabIndex);
         if (v != null) {
             tabPane.putClientProperty("html", v);
         //This Line is added to avoid writing on tab border while aligned to left.
         //You can comment this line to test and or adjust the "5" pixel space
         Rectangle rec = new Rectangle(tabRect.x+5,tabRect.y,tabRect.width,tabRect.height);
            SwingUtilities.layoutCompoundLabel((JComponent) tabPane,
                                               metrics, title, icon,
                                               SwingUtilities.CENTER,
                                               SwingUtilities.LEFT,
                                               SwingUtilities.CENTER,
                                               SwingUtilities.TRAILING,
                                               rec,
                                               iconRect,
                                               textRect,
                                               textIconGap);
         tabPane.putClientProperty("html", null);
         int xNudge = getTabLabelShiftX(tabPlacement, tabIndex, isSelected);
         int yNudge = getTabLabelShiftY(tabPlacement, tabIndex, isSelected);
         iconRect.x += xNudge;
         iconRect.y += yNudge;
         textRect.x += xNudge;
         textRect.y += yNudge;
    }Here I overrided the "Metal" implementation of the tab but you must override the implementation of the used Look And Feel,
    ex. "com.sun.java.swing.plaf.window.WindowsTabbedPaneUI" for the windows LAF.

  • Center and Left Justify Web Pages

    How can web pages be set up to center when the browser window

    Completely wrong approach. There's no need to use any
    positioning at all
    (including anywhere in your page).

  • Left Justify af:table Pager

    JSF/ADF 10.1.3.4
    Is there an easy way to left justify an af:table pager control? Or better yet have it show on both left and right.
    I have increased the page width to 150% and need to have it show without having to do a horizontal scroll.
    Thanks.

    It certainly would.
    Until you gain some proficiency with HTML and then with CSS,
    your experience
    with DW will be one of these mysteries after another. The
    problem is, that
    knowledge would PREVENT you from clicking on the icon that
    inserts the
    <blockquote> tag (mistakenly identified as an indent in
    DW) in the first
    place, and would then allow you to find it and remove it once
    it has been
    used.
    Good luck!

  • Displaying left justified readonly text

    Anyone have any ideas as to how we can display readonly text left justified?
    Form doesn't cut it because everything is centered, and I don't need labels to display my data.
    TextBox doesn't cut it, because I don't want the data to be editable.
    Canvas... Man talk about a head ache. First there is NO title bar (like the rest of the application, so I would need to draw one first), and then I would have to implement all of the line wrapping, and scrolling etc.
    I even thought about alert, but feel it would probably look ghetto.
    I just want a textbox that isn't editable. Anyone have any thoughts

    Why do you blame the Form? It has alignment options and i guess default is left-aligned (why centered???) Then use String to append the string to a form.
    String s = new String("Blablabla");
    myform.append(s);
    I have already used this approach to display readonly text. The one thing i don't like is that the form scrolls the text screen by screen, not line by line. Does somebody knows how to scroll line by line?

  • Pages breaks words using "Justify text" on certain accented characters

    I'm working on a document in Hungarian, and it seems that when I use the "justified text" setting, this puts extra white space around certain accented characters.
    Please see these screenshots:
    http://www.kkovacs.hu/~kkovacs/Pages-bug-with-accented-words.jpg
    In this case, "időszak" should be a single word, and it is, when I write it as "Idõszak" (using õ instead of ő, but this is not the character that is needed there). The problem seems independent of the font that I use (Big Caslon, in the example above).
    Is there a way to work around this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Kristóf

    Hello
    My old eyes fooled me.
    I saw a "lowercase o with a tilde" when it was a "lowercase o with double acute"
    With your font which is a bit more recent than mine, the missing glyph is grabbed from an other font (I didn't search which one it is).
    I didn't got what was in your original screenshot.
    I just get a character with a fully different drawing.
    It's funny because it's the kind of problem RC-R and me where exchanging about in:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1644259&tstart=0
    Given what I get, I will not call that a bug but a feature that many users (most of them ?) are unaware of.
    The operating system does its best to display the character we are asking for even if it is not built in the used font.
    This trickery has PROs and CONs.
    For your use, I'm afraid that CONs are the most important and that you will have to search for a font embedding the needed characters.
    To scan the contents of a font, I uses the free Linotype FontExplorer which displays the defined glyphs in black and the missing ones in red so, it's easy to see if a font fit our needs.
