[mapguide-users] centering mult-line labels

[Jackie Ng]

I think it's due to basic stylization having a hard-coded left
justification for the text label content itself.

https://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/ticket/772

Have you tried switching your layer over to using advanced stylization? I
know it has content justification settings for text/label symbology that
may do what you are looking for.

Failing that, we could just look at addressing the ticket in question

Are there any options for centering multi-line labels that I am
missing?  I am trying to create a multi-line label for a polygon layer
that is centered horizontally in the feature.  The only way that I
have been able to do this is to add a newline character in the label.
When I do this, the resulting label doesn't quite center horizontally
the way I want it to center.  The entire label is technically centered
(based on the longest line), but each line of text is left justified.
Sometimes, this is desirable, but sometimes I want each line of the
label to be centered horizontally.  Is there a way to do this?  If
not, is this something that could make its way in to a future version?
