Table.ContentHorizontalAlignment Property

Returns the horizontal alignment of content in table cells.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor.RichEdit

Declaration

public HorizontalAlignment ContentHorizontalAlignment { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
HorizontalAlignment	An enumeration value.

Available values:

Name	Description
Center	Center alignment.
Left	Left alignment.
Right	Right alignment.

Remarks

The Rich Text Editor component allows you to specify a content horizontal alignment for the following elements:

Table

The ContentHorizontalAlignment property stores the horizontal alignment of content in table cells. Call the ChangePropertiesAsync method and specify the TableProperties.ContentHorizontalAlignment setting to horizontally align content in all cells simultaneously.

Table Cell

The ContentHorizontalAlignment property stores the horizontal alignment of cell content. Call the ChangePropertiesAsync method and specify the TableCellProperties.ContentHorizontalAlignment setting to horizontally align cell content.

Note

A cell’s ContentHorizontalAlignment property takes priority over the table’s ContentHorizontalAlignment property.

The following example aligns content in table cells:
