Some users want to center text sources into layouts and then allow dynamic text without the source being rearranged. Currently this can not be done with crop+pad.

It would be good to figure out a better user interface for this. But the current process that produces best most configurable setup is as follows:

  • Create your text source.
  • Place it where you want it.
  • Right click scene item and Edit Transformations
  • Set bounding box type to "Scale to inner bounds" (or "scale to height of bounds" but this might leak)
  • Set alignment in bounding box to "Center"

Now put whatever text you want into the source and it will scale up and down to fit the area without moving around.

Some users actually want line-wrap in this case to have a consistent width but variable height (alerts with text for example). The current workaround doesnt work for them.
