enum

This enumeration is used in several places throughout the framework to specify the positioning of a text string within its clip box. For example, the StringFormat class uses it for both horizontal text alignment and vertical line alignment.

The Center / Near / Far notation (rather than left/right or top/bottom, for example) enables you to specify both horizontal and vertical alignments and to support locales where right-to-left reading is appropriate. For example, a string drawn with a horizontal alignment, Far , will be drawn at the right of the rectangle in a left-to-right locale, but would be rendered at the left side of a rectangle with a right-to-left locale.

 public enum  StringAlignment  {  Near = 0  ,  Center = 1  ,  Far = 2  }
