L_LTANN_API L_INT L_AnnSetTextAlign(hObject, uTextAlign, uFlags)

Sets the text alignment of an annotation.

Parameters

HANNOBJECT hObject

Handle to the annotation object.

L_UINT uTextAlign

Value that indicates the object's text alignment. Possible values are:

Value	Meaning
TEXTALIGN_LEFT	[1] Align text to left.
TEXTALIGN_CENTER	[2] Center the text.
TEXTALIGN_RIGHT	[3] Align text to the right.

L_UINT uFlags

Flags that determine which objects to process. Most of the flags apply only to container objects. You can combine values when appropriate by using a bitwise OR ( | ). The following are valid values:

Value	Meaning
0	Process only the specified object.

ANNFLAG_RECURSE	[0x0008] Process objects within a container, and within any subcontainers, down to any level.
ANNFLAG_NOTCONTAINER	[0x0002] (Used with ANNFLAG_RECURSE) Process objects within containers, not the containers themselves.
