Hello there. I'm trying to make every text on my vn to appear center-aligned. So naturally i pushed this string into options.rpy
But it doesn't do the job. It seems the written text is placed in some kind of box, and then this box is drawn aligned by center. But the text within the box is still aligned to left.
So is there an elegant way to solve the issue? I need a row-by-row center alignment, just as my MS Word does.

You are nearly there, Lena. You have used xalign and it did its job, centering the block of text.

Now, to center the lines of text you will also need to apply another style: text_align.

So what I need to do is to push this code
And it works like a charm!
Thank You, Donmai! Not only for pointing to the exact command, but also for introdusing me to this priceless rtfm, I was unlucky to find by myself. Now I think I'll be able to do even more cool stuff with vn projects
