Center multiline Title [message #1749741]

Hi,

I am having trouble centering a multiline title text.
Any Idea on how to center each line instead of just using the longest line.

See the attached image (upload should be centered [and not alligned left] below <<EntryLevelSystemCall>>)

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

Indeed, in your VSM you can specify if the label should be placed on the left, center or right of its parent, but the label itself is displayed as aligned left. In my opinion, the alignement should follow the placement. Can you open a bugzilla about it?
Meanwhile, I think that your only solution is to provide a custom style[1] to provide your own edit part for the container having a specific LabelEditPart where you can set the text aligment as centered.

Regards,
Steve
