As far as I am concern, I would like the two, but, no doubt, my priority is your text alignment project esspecially if one could be able to make indentations (several levels of indentation). I have an app. that presents a lot of (scientific) texts in fields : unfortunately any line has to be left aligned ; no possibility to write indented lists :-(( (mainly because the texts may be printed).

Undos (vs. text alignment) [was: Script Editor]
If I use the following script: get the selectedText of fld fTEXT set the textColor of the selectedText to green it does what I expect it to (sets the textColor to the selected part of the text in fld fTEXT to green) BUT the following script: get the selectedText of fld fTEXT set the textAlign of the selectedText to right does NOT do what I expect it to (right-align the selected part of the text in fld fTEXT) which is a bit of a br, and seems a bit inconsistent. sincerely, Richmond Mathewson A Thorn in the flesh is better than a failed Systems Development Life Cycle. __ Sent from Yahoo!

It is actually logical since buttons and fields are the only objects to have a textAlign property, according to the docs. Word processors extend this to paragraphs, but not to any selected text. So technically, the word processor will set the alignment of the *paragraphs* included in the selected text, not the text characters themselves. Paragraphs can contain multiple lines. Rev does not have paragraph objects. Tables are another issue, eg. can a table cell contain a paragraph, or multiple paragraphs, each with their own alignment properties? Hope this helps.
