Hello,

To clarify, are you referring to the text drawing tool? This should technically be left justified within the text box, is there an alternate feature you are referring to?

private System.Windows.Controls.Button longButton;
.
.
.
.
longButton = new System.Windows.Controls.Button
{
Name = "LongButton", Content = "BUY .", Foreground = Brushes.White,
FontWeight = FontWeights.Bold,Background = Brushes.Green
};
//Print("lng btn stuf, " + longButton.ToString() ); // just says BUY
// there is no TextAlign
// places text right aligned, not centered

BUMP can somebody look at this?
BUY is not centered in Content

Hello kenz987,

If the above comment is not the solution this could also relate to where you have the button placed. I would also suggest to try the sample in the following page to view if those buttons are centered (should look like the image), if so you can try using the grid for button placement in whatever parent control you are using.
