Great.

@AyProductions, you can temporarily use Tim's solution, until there is a built-in block way.

@TIMAI2 I think TextAlignment is not that much important and makes sense while you are taking input from the user.

But I saw your Github reply. My app is a word processor. It needs text alignment :slight_smile:

Then use @TIMAI2 solution.
