Editing text 153
To set the orientation of a selected text block:
1.
Click the Text Orientation button in the Property inspector.
2.
Select an orientation option from the pop-up menu:
Horizontal Left to Right
is the default setting for text in Fireworks for most languages. It
orients text horizontally and displays characters from left to right.
Horizontal Right to Left
orients text horizontally and displays characters from right to
left. It is useful for displaying text in languages where text flows from right to left, such as
Hebrew or Arabic.
Vertical Left to Right orients text vertically. If you apply this to lines of text separated by
hard or soft returns, each line of text is displayed as a column. The columns flow from left
to right.
Vertical Right to Left
orients text vertically. Multiple lines of text separated by returns are
displayed as columns that flow from right to left. This option is useful for displaying text
in languages such as Japanese in which text flows from right to left in columns.
Setting text alignment
Alignment determines the position of a paragraph of text relative to the edges of its text block.
In horizontal alignment, text is aligned relative to the left and right edges of a text block. In
vertical alignment, text is aligned relative to the top and bottom edges of a text block. For
more information on setting horizontal or vertical text orientation, see
“Setting text
orientation” on page 152 .
You can align horizontal text to the left or right edges of the text block, center it, or fully
justify it, so that text aligns to both the left and right edges. By default, horizontal text is left-
aligned.
Vertical text can be aligned to the top or bottom of a text block, centered within the text
block, or fully justified between both the top and bottom edges.
To achieve a stretched filter, or to fit text into a specific space, you can set the alignment
to stretch the text horizontally (for horizontally oriented text) or vertically (for vertically
oriented text).

Vertical text characters always flow from top to bottom. Choosing one of the Vertical
orientation options affects only the order of text columns, not the order of text
characters.
