I noticed this post from 4 years ago [CASE-OPENED] Alignment option on column totals and am wondering if it was ever fixed and if it is now broken in 8.2? Because I can't seem to find a way to center my column totals although I can center the title and the data.

Thanks.

I've not played with it much. But there is an 'Alignment Grid' available for that.

I think it was demoed in the 'InfoAssist: Reports for the Board' webcast. Check it out...

Doug, the December webinar "Reports for the Board, not Bored" was for AppStudio, not InfoAssist. But thanks for the thought!
There doesn't appear to be any alignment grid or other option for subtotals in InfoAssist.

Sorry about that... It's not intuitive even in 8204.

However, I got this handy tip from a Friend of mine, Focal Point: TomsWeb, that will accomplish what you're asking for. It's a few steps, as follows:

1) Style the whole report as 'Centered'.
2) Goto to each Column in the report and style it as Left or Right justified, as required, and whatever other formats that you want.
3) Wah Lah... Done...

PM TomsWeb and say Thanks...

Here's my code after doing that:

I'm not sure (imho) why you want "to center my column totals" when the data is left justified. Unless you're already centering the associated data columns, which would make them hard to read as the numbers wouldn't be aligned.

You may want to tag this as
"[SHARING] Aligning Column Totals in IA"

Doug,
Thanks for the code, but I'm actually posting on behalf of one of my users -- they only use IA. The data in the column he is working with is centered. He knows it will be a single digit number, so the column will look fine, but he thinks it is weird that the column is centered but then the total is right justified.
Sounds like I need to open a case if we want this option added to InfoAssist.

You could center justify your grand total line with a custom style sheet. Save it where the other style sheets are located. Then open the fex in which you want to useselect it

You could center justify your grand total line with a custom style sheet. After making the changes. save it where the other style sheets are located.

To apply that style sheet, open the focexec, go to the Home tab, then in the Report group, click Theme and select your custom style sheet.

Tomsweb -- That is a great idea! I think I will pursue that option.
Thanks!
