Bonjour
I was editing one of my scores.
In Edit text style, the functions of alignment position of the Title seems to be reversed: Right set the text to left, Left to the right, Bottom to top and Top to the bottom. Baseline ssems to do nothing. What I am doing wrong ?
I am using Prerelease 1484.
Thanks

The idea is to align text to a reference point. The reference point for title is the top left edge of the parent element, the vertical frame. The reference point is moved to the right 50% of the frame (the center of the vertical frame) with the relative x offset property. Left align now means to move the left edge of the text to the reference point: the text moves right. Right align means to move the right edge of the text to the reference point: the text moves left.
Thanks Werner. Understood.
