  I'm trying to center, both vertically and horizontally, a RadLabelElement within a RadRotator.  Does anyone know how this can be done?  Below is my initial try.
  
  

  RadLabelElement label = new RadLabelElement();

  label.Text = slide.Text;

  label.AutoSize = true;

  label.AutoSizeMode = RadAutoSizeMode.FitToAvailableSize;

  label.Alignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;

  label.StringAlignment = StringAlignment.Center;

  
  

  radRotator1.Items.Add(label);

  
  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

  Hello,
  
  Thank you for writing.
  
  In order to create and position a RadLabelElement in the Middle of RadRotator, please consider the following code snippet:
  

  public Form1()

  {

      new RadControlSpyForm().Show();

      InitializeComponent();

      PopulateRotator();

      

      label.Text = "label";

      label.StretchHorizontally = false;

      label.StretchVertically = false;

      CalcLabelLocation();

      radRotator1.RotatorElement.Children.Add(label);

      

      radRotator1.SizeChanged += new EventHandler(radRotator1_SizeChanged);

       

      radRotator1.Start();

  }

   

  void radRotator1_SizeChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)

  {

      CalcLabelLocation();

  }

   

  private void CalcLabelLocation()

  {

     int x = radRotator1.Location.X + radRotator1.Width / 2 - label.Size.Width /2;

     int y = radRotator1.Location.Y + radRotator1.Height / 2 - label.Size.Height/2;

     label.Location= new Point(x, y);

  }

  
  I hope you find this information helpful. If there is anything else I can assist you with, do not hesitate to contact me.
  
  Best wishes,
