Hi
I have created a radButtonElement in a ribbonbar group.
The text of the button is "New Connection", I want this text to be on 2 lines, and want it centered.
Right now I can get the caption in 2 lines by using "<html>New<br />Connection</html>" in the property Text.
However this is always left aligned when shown in screen.
Eg. like below
<Icon>
New
Connection
How can I make New Connection centered, not default to left align?
The image attached is the rabButton in the radRibbonBar. It is left aligned but I want it centered.

Hi Bill Vanderpol,
Thank you very much for contacting us.
When you set the TextAlignment property of the RadButtonElement the text should be positioned appropriately. This implies that the text should not be aligned to the left when the value of the property is MiddleCenter. Our team would like to thank you for spotting and reporting this issue. It will be referred in the future releases. At the moment I can suggest you the following workaround: instead of using the MarkupEditor you can set the Text property of the RadButtonElement using \n. Further, you can set the TextAlignment property of the TextElement to MiddleCenter. Here is a sample code that sets the properties:
Thank you once again for your cooperation and understanding. I have updated your Telerik points. Please let me know if you experience any further issues.
Best wishes,

I am using vb.net and I set the control.text value to be .Text = "New" + VBNewLine + "Connection" and it still left aligns.
