When a fixed size text layer is created, the text inside the "box" is aligned to the top, and if additional text is inserted at runtime the position of the top line is held constant and the depth of the text is accommodated at the bottom:
For layout purposes, this is not always what is wanted. For example, in my Bastille Day splash screen:
http://www.pl32.com/forum3/viewtopic.ph ... 798#p35396
at the bottom left I added the "Address" text in the PLD file, but when the splash screen is used that address text is a couple of lines longer than the "Address" text used in the layout:
In this case, I wanted to hold the bottom line position and let the additional text depth flow upwards. Can't do that now....

Hi Ken,
If the text layer is selected and the Layer Tool (Q) is active, then do a right click on one of the Green touch the level. Now go to the last entry in the context menu and choose text layer boundary size adjust. PhotoLine perfectly then the size of the text layer.
Cheers Torsten

Re: Req: Bottom alignment of text in fixed text layer
Thanks for the reply, but that is not what I want to do. That option merely reduces the size of the text "box" to the edges of the text. If additional text is added programmatically, the text will be cut off.Torsten hat geschrieben:PhotoLine perfectly then the size of the text layer.
(I understood what you said, thanks to your screenshot.

Okay, I understand we need a dynamic text box level. I don't know if PhotoLine can do that.
