CATextLayers text alignment?

2008-10-11 Thread David Hoerl


I'm using a CATextLayer to display some text which the user can change 
the font size of. When the user changes the font size, I still want my 
text to be centered, both vertically and horizontally.
As far as I know you can only set the the CATextLayers alignmentMode 
to kCAAlignmentCenter to get it centered on one of the axis (I never 
know which one is which), but is there any way that it can be centered 
on both axis?


Yours sincerely,
Tim Andersson



Well, I had this same issue earlier this year, and did find a hack 
- look in the archives for:


Vertically centering text in a CATextLayer QA

[As an aside, its usually worth doing a quick search on google - in 
this case for CATextLayer - my earlier post is 8th on the first 
page.]

Thank you, David! Just what I needed.

Hmm, I did search Google and the archives before posting, but guess I  
didn't search well enough.


Kind regards,

Hi there.

text to be centered, both vertically and horizontally.
