Left Align page
I am trying to emulate an existing webpage using Xara WD 10 Premium and cannot figure out how to align the whole website to the left. I tried all the older tweaksets and checking the forums for other options but I could not get a page to align left. In my experience on this forum, I will not be surprised to see an answer very quickly!

Re: Left Align page
I'm not sure what the answer is. I know that by default all pages are centered.
I did a Google search on Left Align Page and here are the results. Maybe there is some help in these links.

Re: Left Align page
Thanks again GW, but I have already looked beyond Xara for an answer, as this forum keeps pointing to the tweakset or a code snippet that only works with older versions of Xara. I also had to trawl through too many posts criticizing the the whole idea of left (or right) justifying, when all we really need is a technical answer if anyone should know it. I simply need it to emulate an existing site that I have no control over. This forum is a fabulous resource.

OK. Got it. When Acorn swings through he should be able to give you the answer.

Re: Left Align page
Andy, I've not had the opportunity to look at this.
Clearly, there have been changes to the Xara coding for Variants and Supersites so a tweak that covers these and earlier formats may take a bit of time.
To raise the game, I suggest you raise it in the Dear Xara... forum as well.

Re: Left Align page
I'll move the thread to Dear Xara. It would be useful to have a Left Align page option.

Re: Left Align page
Adding this as a Placeholder might work:
Code:
<style>
html {
position: absolute;
left: 0px;
}
</style>
Seems OK for Supersites.

Re: Left Align page
I tried this one, and it stays centered. However, i notice if I refresh the page, it jumps to the left very quickly and immediately comes back center again...? See here> http://www.britresource.com/cbc.htm
Also, if you click any of the links, it takes you to the genuine page and you can see how they care left aligned.
( Do not look too closely at my mimicking the site, it is for a christmas special video just for a few days for the staff)

This works as it overwrites the in-line settings: Attachment 104784.
The two Placeholders just need to copied to your Site design.

Re: Left Align page
Hi Acorn, despite all your efforts, which are much appreciated for something seemingly unimportant, this still does not work. I added the two placeholders and uploaded the pages and still no left align. I did notice that the sample .web webpage did not align left before I used it in any way. Should I be ADDING these jQuery placeholders to some other option or just use them stand-alone?
Many thanks for your patience!
