Hello -

This has to be very simple, but I'm not finding any mention (Crystal help or otherwise) of how to vertically align text within a field. Horizontally, yes, but not vertically.

My goal is to bottom-align text within a multi-line field. Does anyone know how I might accomplish this?

TIA.

Brad

I have been struggling with this as well. Is it really not possible? Even a workaround? I have been thinking that HTML text might work...

Hi All,

Closest I have got with this is the crcenteredvertically alignment constant (CR XI) but still no definitive answer...

Can anyone else help?

TIA,

HywelC

try these constants

crTopAligned - Align to the top.

crBottomAligned - Align to the bottom.

crCenteredVertically -Center vertically.

Where would those constants be applied and what would you set equal to them? I've tried the formula editor in the format field and have not had success.

Thanks.

Probably this can help for vertical text alignment:

right click on the field -> format field -> Common.
On the very bottom of the "Object format" section, set 90 (or 270) degrees for the "Text Rotation"
