===== settextjustify =====


====Syntax of settextjustify ==== 
 <code c>
#include <graphics.h>
void settextjustify(int horiz, int vert);
  </code>


==== Description of settextjustify ==== 
<code c>
Text output after a call to settextjustify is justified around the
current position (CP) horizontally and vertically, as specified. The
default justification settings are LEFT_TEXT (for horizontal) and
TOP_TEXT (for vertical). The enumeration text_just in graphics.h provides
names for the horiz and vert settings passed to settextjustify.
==== Description of settextjustify ==== 
<code c>  Name  Value  Action
horiz       LEFT_TEXT   0  left-justify text
   CENTER_TEXT 1  center text
   RIGHT_TEXT  2  right-justify text
vertical    BOTTOM_TEXT 0  bottom-justify text
   CENTER_TEXT 1  center text
   TOP_TEXT    2  top-justify text
If horiz is equal to LEFT_TEXT and direction equals HORIZ_DIR, the CP's x
component is advanced after a call to outtext(string) by textwidth
(string).
settextjustify affects text written with outtext and cannot be used with
text mode and stream functions.

<code c>
/* settextjustify example */

#include <graphics.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>

/* function prototype */

   cleardevice();

   /* set the text justification */
   settextjustify(hj, vj);

   /* create a message string */
   sprintf(msg, "%s  %s", hjust[hj], vjust[vj]);

   /* create crosshairs on the screen */
   xat(midx, midy);

   /* output the message */
   outtextxy(midx, midy, msg);

   getch();
}

   /* clean up */
   closegraph();
   return 0;
}

void xat(int x, int y) /* draw an x at (x,y) */
{

  line(x, y-4, x, y+4);
