I have a text object that uses Word Wrap. Is there a way to force the text object to center itself on the screen (IE: word wrap creates two lines of text, center the two lines on the screen vertical/horizontal). Or if that is not possible, is there a way to force a group (text object inside a group) to center on the screen?

I am looking for the same thing. I am making a generic title page and I want the text to always be in the middle no matter how many lines it takes up. Has anyone found a solution?

Hey guys,

You can use visual logic to do this.

Text object boundingbox.height connect to Divide block

Set divide to /2.5 and connect to Text object Y position

This will force centre the text vertically.

Hi Red,

Visual logic is the right track but it didn't work as expected. The text was vertically aligned but at the bottom of the screen instead of in the middle. Adding an offset of 484 fixed this issue.

Here is my visual logic structure in case anyone else has the same problem:

Text object boundingbox.height connect to Divide Block Base

Set divide to /2.5 and connect to Offset Base

Set Offset to 484 and connect to Text object Y position

Hey David,

I forgot I put the text in a group to centre it in the screen but I prefer your idea of using Offset.

Thanks,
