How do I change text alingment in DOORS?

Question

Within a single DOORS object, how do I change the text alignment from any menu or tool option? I am using DOORs 9.5.

Research

The first result on google only talks about soft versus hard returns, this prominent IBM Jazz page doesn't talk about an application I use and this answer from the IBM community requires DXL usage, which my team does not have permission to access. I am simply looking for the option that changes text alignment.

Solution

  • A couple of ways: First the Object Text needs to be in Edit-In-Place. 1) From the toolbar press the indent icon..

    2) From the menu: Edit>In-Place>Increase (or) Decrease Indent

    in DXL, the command is applyTextFormattingToParagraph(),

    Hope this helps.. Don
