Can I change the vertical alignment of text in a text box?
I need to place a text box in the footer of a template (I need the text box
because it is placed on top of a picture that is defined as ' hidden'): since users of the template might want to add more than 1 line of text, it is important that the text in the text box is aligned at the bottom of the text box instead of above, as is the standard. |

Fien,
Here is a trick. Put a single column/single row table (1 cell) in the text box and align text in the cell with the bottom. -- Greg Maxey/Word MVP A Peer in Peer to Peer Support Fien wrote: I need to place a text box in the footer of a template (I need the text box because it is placed on top of a picture that is defined as ' hidden'): since users of the template might want to add more than 1 line of text, it is important that the text in the text box is aligned at the bottom of the text box instead of above, as is the standard. |

There's no such control for a text box. There is, though, for a table cell, so insert a one-cell table inside the text box, set its row height, turn off its borders, and set its text alignment to bottom left (the alignment control is on the right-click menu when the cursor is inside the cell). -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
