HI, My bounding box is not in line with any object I create and I can't seem to get it back in line.

Please see as follows:

I create a text box and type and the text comes up to left and down? Im guessing its got something to do
with the anchor point but struggling to figure this out.

Thanks

Thanks Kevin,

All fixed!

It must have just been a bug.

I restarted the program and all was better!

Thanks

Please can you select the layer and then go to Animation > Reveal Modified Properties (or double-hit U) to reveal what’s changed in the layer. Also open the Character and Paragraph panel. When you ha e done this, please take a screenshot so I can see all of this and upload it for me. Thanks *****

Use the Paragraph panel to choose your text alignment and justification options and the Character panel to adjust Kerning, Tracking or Baseline Shift if necessary. It sounds like you may want to centre align the text but it's hard to know as you haven't explained what you expect to happen. Text always defaults to Left Aligned.

You may also want to Reset the Character and Paragraph panel options. Do this by clicking on their wing menus and choosing the Reset option.
