API:LabelSetTextAlign

UI Lua API · Label functions
Version: WAR 1.4.8

Sets how the text in a Label is aligned.

LabelSetTextAlign(labelName, alignment)

Arguments

labelName: string – Name of a Label window.
alignment: string – One of "left", "top", "center", "right", "leftcenter", "rightcenter", "bottom", "bottomleft", "bottomright".

Nothing.

The stock XML uses the same names in the textalign attribute of Label elements.* Any other string raises the Invalid alignment type error and leaves the alignment unchanged.
After a valid alignment is set, the label's text is laid out again.
The function needs at least two arguments and only reads the last two.

Error in function call 'LabelSetTextAlign': Window %s does not exist
Error in function call 'LabelSetTextAlign': Window %s is not a Label
Error in function call 'LabelSetTextAlign': Invalid alignment type %s in window %s (alignment string, then label name)
