Hey everyone,

I am not sure why, but UD does not include "justify" as a text alignment option. Perhaps it is not part of the official language standard.

I have worked out how to show "justify" in the menus, but it doesn't do anything in the code.

I have put

<menuitem name="_Justify" enabled="true" command="dw.getDocumentDOM().setTextAlignment('justify')" checked="dw.getDocumentDOM().getTextAlignment() == 'justify'" id="DWContext_Text_Alignment_Justify" />

into menus.xml. But it seems that ="dw.getDocumentDOM().setTextAlignment('justify')" doesn't hook in anywhere.

Anyone have any idea if it is possible to create "new" commands in DW.

If so, how?

Microbe,

justify is not understood by all browsers types. Maybe that's why it's not included in dreamweaver.

Your menu changes seem to be ok when you don't know how the setTextAlignment() functon works. But I have searched this in the Extending Dreamweaver documentation and it says:

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>dom.setTextAlignment()
Availability: Dreamweaver 3.0

Description: Sets the ALIGN attribute of the block that contains the selection to the
specified value.

Arguments: alignValue, alignValue must be "left", "center", or "right".
<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" size=2 id=quote>

This means so much as: the function doesn't understand the parameter "justify". I have taken a look in the configuration folder, but the setTextAlignment() function is not defined in a js file so I can't try to build a new version for you.

I could try to do a workaround, but that probably would take lots of time to do. So I'm not giving it a try <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>, I'm sure you understand that.

Thanks Waldo,

I although I don't know a lot about extensions, I came to the same conclusion as you and I appreciate you checking it.

Couple of things. I did not receive email notification about your reply though it was set to "on" I think.

Also, typo in your sig - it's reSourCes

<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> I changed my sig, thanks.

About the mail notification: it works fine for me, so maybe it wasn't checked, or your email is not set properly in your profile I think.

Thanks for the feedback.

Well, it worked this time, so not sure.

The only thing I can think is that my wife grabbed the email at home and I never got to see that message <img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>
