Data Field Justification
Did you know that data fields have thier
own
justification which is different than that of the text element?
Take a close look at the animation below. First I place an empty data field where the text and the data field are both left center justified. This can be seen when I fill in the field.
I then use the keyin
justify center
to change the justification of the data field to center, and re-fill the field. I then change the justification of the data field to the right with the keyin
justify right
and re-fill the field. In both cases, the justification of the text element has not been changed even though the data field justification has. This can be seen at the end of the animation when I move the text about it's justification of left center.
Also note that changing a data fields justification this way is not dynamic.....you'll need to re-fill the field to see the effect of the keyin.
