How To Set Default Alignment In TRichViewEdit

Post by DickBryant »

I would like to know how to set the default alignment of a TRichViewEdit that I'm using as an editor so that it would force, say, centered alignment UNLESS the paragraph was specifically set to something else.

This setting would be set elsewhere in a global options dialog. So what I'm looking for is something like:

RVEdit1.DefaultAlignment := Alignment;

where alignment is rvaLeft, rvaRight, rvaCenter or rvaJustify

So when the rve is cleared and someone begins typing into the editor it would start off being in the default alignment, but could then be selected and changed by regular means.

Thanks,

Dick

If you want to change initial alignment, it's simple.

On clearing:

rve.Clear;
rve.DeleteUnusedStyles(True, True, True);
rve.ParaStyles[0].Alignment := DefaultAlignment;
