Re: CAPI display text with alignment

If it's supposed to be just one line you can also use layouts:

(capi:contain (make-instance 'capi:column-layout :adjust :center :visible-max-width () :description (list (make-instance 'capi:title-pane :text "CENTERED TEXT"))))

want to make use of the title of the pane, do it like so:

(capi:contain (make-instance 'capi:title-pane :title "test" :visible-max-width ()  :title-font  (gp:make-font-description :size 24) :title-position :top  :title-adjust :center))

there are other ways depending on your use case.

It seems like capi:display-pane is the right class, but there is no alignment option. titled-object is a superclass of title-pane, but that does not work. I assume because it is intended to be the title of some other element.
