FP: "Center" Alignment Not Supported for ActiveX Objects

ID: Q160832

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft FrontPage 97 for Windows with Bonus Pack
Microsoft FrontPage for the Power Macintosh, version 1.0

SYMPTOMS

In the Properties dialog box for an ActiveX object, the Alignment box does not include the Center option.

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem, select the Middle option.

"Middle" has the same effect as "Center" when you view the page in a Web browser.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows.

MORE INFORMATION

The Align="Center" parameter of the <Object> tag does not center the object horizontally. It only centers surrounding text vertically alongside the object.

If you want to center an object horizontally, use either of the following methods.

Method 1

Select the object and click Paragraph on the Format menu. In the Paragraph Alignment list, select Center, and then Click OK.

Method 2

Select the object and click the Center button on the Standard toolbar.
