  Center Justify Text

  Posted by Steve Cohen on July 9, 2009 at 2:30 am

  I have never seen an option to do this in Final Cut’s Text generator or in Live Type, but what I want to do is center justify the text of a disclaimer so it is even on both the left and right sides.

  Anyway to do that in FInal Cut, Live Type, Motion or any of the tools that come in the FCP Suite?

  Title 3D can do it.

  All the best,

  Thanks Tom;
  I haven’t used Title 3D that much.
  I thought about looking at that after I posted the question.

  I don’t know of ANY text tool that doesn’t have a button to select left, right or centered. FCPs default in the regular text tool is center.

  Have a wonderful day.

  Chris;

  Either I wasn’t clear or you mis-understood, what I wanted to do.

  I was looking for a way to have the text justified left and right at the same time.

  Basically the tool adds spaces to the middle of the lines so that both sides ar lined up.

  Tom answered it and it worked perfectly.
