Trying to center text in a text box

[grantdovey]

I have just upgraded from InDesign CS2 to CS4. I am trying to center text vertically in a text box. I remember in CS2 that there were three different buttons, one that would center it at the top, one that would center the text in the middle and one on the bottom.

If anyone knows where these buttons went, it is much appreciated.

Thanks.

Change your workspaces to Advanced.

That might bring it up again.

Kinda weird...

If any version had such buttons, I don't remember ever seeing or using them. I've always set my vertical alignment by calling up the Text Frame Options, (Ctrl+B).

Ah! There they are...on the control panel, (when the frame is selected with the pick tool...as opposed to having a live insertion point). They are pretty far to the right. If your display size is such that not all the features fit, they may be getting clipped.
