Hello, I have a little problem with Align Right and Bounding, I'd like to put some text on the right side, but if I want a background with it behind, it is simply impossible because the X Location is counted on the left side, not on the right side. That makes the title go out of the screen instead of aligning on the right side... Here's a showcase of what I mean:  Does anyone know how to make this work?

This clearly does not work, unfortunately - the text box seems to anchored to the left in such a case.

For right aligned text and bounding, in GT you have to build your right aligned textblocks with Horizontal texture flip in Effects and when adding the input in vMix you check Mirror in the General tab.
It will be a bit weird in GT, but once flipped in vMix, you won't see the trick behind, just the result you wanted.
*I have nothing for center aligned text!

Hey all,
Still no solution for this? I really need this to work on my layouts. What Simon5 suggested could work on layouts that doesn't contain any other text, but mine contains multiple layers (aligned left) and some aligned right that need to bound on the background...

+1 on needing bounding to work with center-aligned and right-aligned text

Well I am glad I found this thread after trying to bound a right aligned text with a background box without success. At least I just spent half an hour trying to solve something that obviously will not work.
But on the same time I am sort of stunned how this functionality can be missing!
I mean, having a right aligned text with a background that expands with the text is a very common way to do graphics.
And no, using the flip method will not work for me either since I need to have multiple texts in the same title, where some are right aligned and some left aligned.
So a BIG +1 on this feature request from me!
