Post subject:  Center Textframes in Table Cells
Hi all!

I'm stuck on a probably stupid thing. I use a Textframe to rotate a cell's value 90° counter clockwise. Now I need this textframe to be centered in its cell. I can't get it centered using the cells alignment property. Setting the alignment property works perfectly well when there's a paragraph in the cell but not when there's a textframe. Any hints for me? What am I missing?

This is what I'm doing:
Code:
     ...
     Paragraph paragraph = new Paragraph();
     paragraph.Format.Font.Color = Colors.Black;
     paragraph.Format.Shading.Color = new Color(192 << 16 | 192 << 8 | 192);
     paragraph.Format.Font.Bold = true;
     paragraph.AddText(content);
     ....
     // Unfortunately this doesn't have any impact
     cell.Format.Alignment = ParagraphAlignment.Center;

     TextFrame verticalContent = cell.AddTextFrame();

     verticalContent.Orientation = TextOrientation.Upward;
     verticalContent.MarginBottom = Unit.FromMillimeter(3); 
     verticalContent.Add(paragraph);
     ...


Thanks a lot!

Hi!

I didn't try your code, but the answer could be something like
Code:
verticalContent.Left = ShapePosition.Center;
