<ST_TextAnchoringType> (Text Anchoring Types)

This type specifies a list of available anchoring types for text.

This simple type's contents are a restriction of the XML Schema token datatype.

The following are possible enumeration values for this type:

Enumeration Value

Description

<b> (Text Anchor Enum ( Bottom ))

Anchor the text at the bottom of the bounding rectangle.

<ctr> (Text Anchor Enum ( Center ))

Anchor the text at the middle of the bounding rectangle.

<dist> (Text Anchor Enum ( Distributed ))

Anchor the text so that it is distributed vertically. When text is horizontal, this spaces out the actual lines of text and is almost always identical in behavior to <anchorJustified> (special case: if only 1 line, then anchored in middle). When text is vertical, then it distributes the letters vertically. This is different than <anchorJustified>, because it always forces distribution of the words, even if there are only one or two words in a line.

<just> (Text Anchor Enum ( Justified ))

Anchor the text so that it is justified vertically. When text is horizontal, this spaces out the actual lines of text and is almost always identical in behavior to <'distrib'> (special case: if only 1 line, then anchored at top). When text is vertical, then it justifies the letters vertically. This is different than <anchorDistributed>, because in some cases such as very little text in a line, it will not justify.

<t> (Text Anchoring Type Enum ( Top ))

Anchor the text at the top of the bounding rectangle.
