Justification works only on multiple line labels and applies then to the relative position of the lines within a label..
For single line labels, the position of the text (anchor point) is calculated (with the specified font) by positioning the centre of the string on the (possibly) offset centroid of the labelled object Jacques Paris e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] MapBasic-MapInfo support http://www.paris-pc-gis.com -----Original Message----- From: Peter Horsbøll Møller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 15-Dec-04 03:26 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: MI-L Custom labeling using an Expression Hi Philip, I don't think that you can set the justification in the expression unless you want to play around with putting a number of spaces in front of the text in each line. The justification is controlled by the placement of the label. If you choose to place the label to the left of the insertion point the text is automatically right justified Peter Horsbøll Møller GIS Developer Geographical Information & IT COWI A/S Odensevej 95 DK-5260 Odense S.
