From: daved2424 on 31 May 2010 12:30 I have set up my normal style to be justified, however if there is less than one complete line of text (no wrapping) I would like that paragraph to be centre aligned. Is this possible without having to do it manually each time? I imagine I am using Word for Mac 2008. many thanks for any help in advance. -- daved2424
From: CyberTaz on 31 May 2010 16:46 No, you can't define a single style to work in different ways. Assuming you are talking about an actual 1 line paragraph rather than the last line of a multi-line paragraph you'd need to have a different Style or change the alignment directly. If you're referring to the last line of a multi-line paragraph the answer is also no. Alignment is a paragraph formatting attribute & Word doesn't allow mixing alignment within the same paragraph. There may be some way of creating this sort of deviation using VBA or some such in other versions of Word, but in Office 2008 there is no VBA available. Even if possible, though, I'm not sure I'd want it to be my default for Normal style.

[WATCH WHAT THE THREAD HEAD IS SAYING] 'We'-- have 'Justified-from-the-left' (Shorts to the left); 'He'-- wants 'Justified-from-the-center' ... A 'fifth'-style, Not a change.... I don't have a direct suggestion, but his point is valid... 1st. I'd pseudo-suggest try-playing with a compounded object, one parameter each. 2nd. I'd pseudo-suggest try-playing with the foreign-languages (Hebrew is Right so Justified...shorts-right...? But, What, might be centered...?) COMPARE: I did this in HTML to get a scrollbar on the left--! (heh, works) Ray. __ "CyberTaz" wrote: > No, you can't define a single style to work in different ways.
