4.6 Alignment Property

Description:	Gives the alignment of the character string(s), specified in the Caption property, within the control or object.
Used in:
Controls	CheckBox Frame	Label OptionButton	StaticText	TextBox
Objects	Column	TableColumn
Values (with constants):
CheckBox and OptionButton	0 - Left(POW-CAPTIONALIGNMENT-LEFT) 1 - Right(POW-CAPTIONALIGNMENT-RIGHT)
TextBox and Column	0 - Left(POW-TEXTALIGNMENT-LEFT) 1 - Center(POW-TEXTALIGNMENT-CENTER) 2 - Right(POW-TEXTALIGNMENT-RIGHT) For the TextBox control, it is only effective when the EditableLabel property is True and the MultiLine property is False. When the text is being edited the alignment is left justified regardless of the value of the Alignment property.
Frame	1 - Top/HCenter(POW-ALIGNMENT-TOPHCENTER) 2 - Top/Right(POW-ALIGNMENT-TOPRIGHT) 4 - VCenter/Left(POW-ALIGNMENT-VCENTERLEFT) 5 - VCenter/HCenter (POW-ALIGNMENT-VCENTERHCENTER) 6 - VCenter/Right (POW-ALIGNMENT-VCENTERRIGHT) 8 - Bottom/Left(POW-ALIGNMENT-BOTTOMLEFT) 9 - Bottom/HCenter (POW-ALIGNMENT-BOTTOMHCENTER) 10 - Bottom/Right (POW-ALIGNMENT-BOTTOMRIGHT) 99 - Auto(POW-ALIGNMENT-AUTO) Note that: If the FrameStyle property is "0 - GroupBox", the values 0, 4 or 8 are Top/Left, the values 1, 5 or 9 are Top/HCenter, the values 2, 6 or 10 are Top/Right. If the value is "99 - Auto" and the FrameStyle property is "0 - GroupBox" the alignment becomes Top/Left. If the value is "99 - Auto" and the FrameStyle property is "1 - Panel", the alignment becomes VCenter/HCenter.
StaticText and TableColumn	0 - Top/Left(POW-ALIGNMENT-TOPLEFT) 1 - Top/HCenter (POW-ALIGNMENT-TOPHCENTER) 2 - Top/Right(POW-ALIGNMENT-TOPRIGHT) 4 - VCenter/Left(POW-ALIGNMENT-VCENTERLEFT) 5 - VCenter/HCenter (POW-ALIGNMENT-VCENTERHCENTER) 6 - VCenter/Right (POW-ALIGNMENT-VCENTERRIGHT) 8 - Bottom/Left(POW-ALIGNMENT-BOTTOMLEFT) 9 - Bottom/HCenter(POW-ALIGNMENT-BOTTOMHCENTER) 10 - Bottom/Right (POW-ALIGNMENT-BOTTOMRIGHT) For the Table control, when a cell is being edited, the alignment is left justified regardless of the value of the Alignment property.
Default values:
CheckBox	1 - Right(POW-CAPTIONALIGNMENT-RIGHT)
Column	0 - Left(POW-TEXTALIGNMENT-LEFT)
Frame	99 - Auto(POW-ALIGNMENT-AUTO)
OptionButton	1 - Right(POW-CAPTIONALIGNMENT-RIGHT)
StaticText	0 - Top/Left(POW-ALIGNMENT-TOPLEFT)
