Hi John,
 
I understand you this time.  Boy, Megadots sure spoiled some
of you!  (Smile)
 
I suspect this would need some special program logic
applying, but I'm going to submit it to the database.
 
All the best,
 
George.

Hi again, George,

What I'm asking for is the ability to vertically center the
contents of a page (e.g., a title page), so that the Braille
output would show an equal number of blank lines at the top
and bottom of the page.  Is there a way to do this already
with a style or in some other way?  If not, I'd love to see
this feature added to DBT.

Sorry for any confusion I may have caused with my previous
posting.  I hope I've explained this more clearly this time.

I'm off to Good Friday services, but will be back online
later this evening.

Again, many thanks.

John Luttenberger

Hi John,
 
You've got me on that one - or perhaps it's just been a
funny day!
 
Do you mean, mark a block of text, center it, and put a page
break before and after the text which you have centered?
 
If you do mean this, I can explain how to do it.  It will be
a good lesson in creating Styles with Codes.
 
If you don't, could you give me a more prise example please?
 
(By the way, don't give up on the suggestions for 10.5.  I'm
told that some today might actually make it)
 
George.

Hello again, George,

OK, you asked for it (smile) ... so here's another
suggestion for DBT 10.5.

I'd like to see a style or code pair which would
automatically center the enclosed text vertically on its own
page (or on each page, if multiple pages of material are
present).  MegaDots already has this feature.

Or is there already a way to do this in DBT?

Thanks again.

Hi John,
 
Very good suggestions, and indeed the second is one that I
have been meaning to bring up myself.
 
They have been forwarded for insertion into the
feature/problem database.
 
Many thanks and keep them coming.
 
George.
