Good said in How to CENTER said in How to CENTER Strange that it is listed everywhere, including here, for example ( ) as one of the top 5 or 10 “text editors”. But … Trim Trailing Space, while it removes extra whitespace from the end of a line, isn’t a “flush right”. Notepad++ has Edit > Blank Operations > Trim Leading Space, which is effectively a “flush left”.

Strange that it’s written all over the software and this forum, but you haven’t noticed there’s only one “d” in “Notepad++”.īut, beyond that, I’m not sure where these “flush left” and “flush right” commands you mention are located in Notepad++: I’ve never noticed them.

Note: you could make stabs at defining those and overcoming each of my contadictions to the idea of “centering” for plaintext… but all it takes is another person who disagrees with your definition to prove that it’s not really centered plaintext.Īlso, strange that Notepadd++ has commands for flush left and flush right…but not CENTER? I am curious: how do you define the “right” or “center” for a plaintext document? Do you use the old early-80s definition, where many command-line-based computers had 40 character wide screens (like the TI99/4-A I grew up on)? Or the dot-matrix-printer standard 80 character wide paper? Or 120 character like I usually set as my minimum command-prompt-window sizes in windows and linux? Does this change when you change the printer settings from portrait to landscape and back? Do you want it to keep track of how font size influences characters per line? Does Notepad++ always know when a zoom setting somewhere has made it so it’s 80-character-wide line only takes up half the width of the printed page? or twice the width of the printed page?

#HOW TO CENTER TEXT IN WORD IN THE CENTER OF THE PAGE CODE#

If you want to do it with automation, and have things like syntax highlighting, to make sure that the textual code you are writing/editing makes sense, and to help make it more efficient, then a text editor like Notepad++ is right for you. If you care about getting specific text into a plaintext file, for easy standards-driven transport or for sending to a compiler/interpreter, then a text editor is right for you. If you want to save formatting codes (like center, justify, bold, font size, etc), you need a word processor. And if you opened it in a different person’s copy of Notepad++, or a competitor’s text editor, would it be centered? Not likely, though you may get lucky.

But then, is it really centered? No, because if you edit the number of characters in that line of text, the number of spaces would have to change. The only way it could “center” is to insert some sort of whitespace characters before the text. To “center” text, even beyond those hurdles, how do you expect a text editor to indicate “center this”? Word processors do it by embedding some sort of code around the text that says “this text is centered” – but a text-editor’s job is to save the text, and just the text, to the disk, so it cannot use formatting codes. “Centering” is not really a concept suited to text editors, because that depends on context and graphical issues (font sizes, proportional vs fixed-width, document width, etc). Some text editors (all but MS notepad, in that list) are enhanced to work better as source-code editors – so they can apply colors, run macros, and help make coding easier. Their emphasis is on editing the text that will be in a plaintext file on disk the how it looks is focused on making it easier to edit the text. Text editors (Notepad++, MS notepad, SciTE, vim, emacs) are made for actually editing plaintext. Word processors (MS Word, OpenOffice Writer, etc) are made to be able to fiddle with alignments, fonts, and presentation stuff. When did “they” change the definition of “text”?

I guess customer service or manual labor might be worse, but I’m not sure.) (As an engineer, I cannot image a much worse career than having to deal with advertising and marketing for 50 years. I wouldn’t wish 50 years of advertising, marketing, PCs, and Macs on even my worst enemy, let alone a random stranger on the internet. That sounds like you’ve led a difficult life. I’ve been in advertising and in marketing for over 50 years and been working with PC’s and Mac’s since the mid-80’s. But it is an excellent text editor, and I consider it one of the best.
