Text align right (WD 5.0.0. vs. WD 5.0.1.)

[Markku]

After updating WD to current 5.0.1. version I noticed that right aligned text is treated differently when exported to html than it used to be with WD 5.0.0..

It is now more difficult to predict how this kind of text is rendered in browser. It behaves now very similarly with Xtreme Pro, which also had difficulties with right aligned text.

I was very pleased with original WD release in regards to this aspect, because it allowed to use right alignment almost wysiwyg.

Here is an example how v.5.0.0. exported html looks:

and this screenshot is after exporting the same file from v.5.0.1.

Although it cannot be seen here clearly, but the right sides of these two images start from the same spot, and the lock icon is in the same place. Only difference is the text shift which is quite a lot.

I can remedy this by switching to left aligned text, but I hate that because any changes to the bold text will transfer the non-bold text to the right and that is a no-no.

Is that a text area or a text line?

Can you attach your .web file

That is a text line.

Here is a simplified copy.

Try using a text area.
This constrains the text to the text area bounding box.

Thanks,

I tried but the results were the same.



The bottom copy of the line is text area with its text aligned to right. It should be aligned to the same spot to the right as the line on top of it.

So this looks very clearly that the version change was a step backwards in this respect. (Otherwise it is good stuff)

Looks like a bug. We'll take a look at this.
Thank you for noticing.
