Alignment

Where to align something along an axis.

Possible values are:

• start: Aligns at the start of the text direction.
• end: Aligns at the end of the text direction.
• left: Align at the left.
• center: Aligns in the middle, horizontally.
• right: Aligns at the right.
• top: Aligns at the top.
• horizon: Aligns in the middle, vertically.
• bottom: Align at the bottom.

These values are available globally and also in the alignment type's scope, so you can write either of the following two:

2D alignments

To align along both axes at the same time, add the two alignments using the + operator. For example, top + right aligns the content to the top right corner.

Fields

The x and y fields hold the alignment's horizontal and vertical components, respectively (as yet another alignment). They may be none.

Methods

The axis this alignment belongs to.

• "horizontal" for start, left, center, right, and end
• "vertical" for top, horizon, and bottom
• none for 2-dimensional alignments
