AmbientAttributes.horizontalAlignment

The horizontalAlignment attribute specifies or retrieves a value that indicates the horizontal placement of the control when the VIEW or parent SUBVIEW is resized.

Syntax

  

Possible Values

This attribute is a read/write String.

Value Description
left Default. Maintains the placement of the control relative to the left of the VIEW or parent SUBVIEW when the view is resized.
right Maintains the placement of the control relative to the right of the VIEW or parent SUBVIEW when the view is resized.
center Maintains the placement of the control relative to the horizontal center of the VIEW or parent SUBVIEW when the view is resized.
stretch Maintains the placement of the control relative to both the left and right margins of the VIEW or parent SUBVIEW when resized. The control stretches to fit when the VIEW or SUBVIEW is stretched. The actual image does not grow or shrink unless it is resizable, but the clickable area grows or shrinks if not bounded by a clippingImage.

Remarks

Unless horizontalAlignment is set to "center", the control retains its original distance from the specified edge, or from both edges if "stretch" is specified and the control is resizable. If the control is not resizable and "stretch" is specified, the clickable region is stretched instead.

You can set any combination of horizontalAlignment and verticalAlignment. For example, if you want to center a control both horizontally and vertically, set horizontalAlignment="center" verticalAlignment="center".

Requirements

Windows Media Player version 7.0 or later.
