How do right align legend labels in ArcPro?

D_Hornby_ddh_uni

All,

I am using ArcPro 2.0.1 to construct a Layout.

I have created a layer called cluster group which has 5 symbols, the first and last symbol have longer labels as shown in the image. I have selected this item in the legend in the TOC, gone to properties of labels and clicked on right justify as shown below. I would have expected all labels to justify right.

What am I doing wrong?

We have [BUG-000096166: In ArcGIS Pro, legend elements in the layout are unable to adjust to the settings for the Horizontal Alignment, Vertical Alignment, Offset X, and Offset Y Position properties and do not move as expected when clicking the Apply button] logged.

I'm checking in with that team now to see if there is anything more to share at the moment in terms of status. It is currently marked as assigned.

The workaround would be to convert to graphics and align... hopefully another update soon.

Cheers

In 3.0.0 I can get it to right-align with word-wrapping, but I can't get rid of the huge useless space when it's right-aligned:

I've checked all of the spacing & indent settings. If I try to control the width manually, I get the dreaded red dots.

I tried the same with a single column & have the same issue.

However, If I break it into two legends and turn off half of my items in each, remove the background, and then draw a fake background behind it, I can get the effect I'm looking for.

I hope I never have to edit any of it...

Any updates on this, @KoryKramer ? I just spent half an hour troubleshooting this in 2.8.2 (am stuck in a long project before my next update, but this sounds like an old bug).

There's absolutely nothing logical about turning on word wrapping to solve a right-aligned patch failure, and I only found this solution by way of a person having difficulties with right-to-left text.

Just wondering, what kind of result are you trying to achieve?

This or perhaps this ?

It seems that some setting do not have effect. I also wasn't able to change the alignment of the text. Although the preview below the setting shows the effect, nothing happened in the legend. I even changed the internationalization setting to "right to left" and that didn't do anything either.

You may want to consider opening a support case and to see if this is a bug.

So you want more than just the rearrangement of the pieces, it appears you want the whole thing aligned to the right side.

Nope... no setting there, you can order the pieces so that the labels are on the left, middle or right, but I have had no success in getting a big shove to the right of the box at all.

Had a go at your suggestion and it did not work. I'm fast coming to the conclusion its some sort of bug and nothing I am doing is changing the horizontal position of the labels within the legend. In fact if I choose any label, say header or layer and try to change the horizontal alignment nothing happens. I can change their colour so I know I'm point to right part of the legend. Searching the online help and I discover nothing about horizontal alignment for LEGEND labels. It's as if they have created the buttons but not put any functionality behind them?

Of cause I could convert it to a graphic but I want to avoid that as then it becomes detached from the layer.

Kory Kramer‌ you are the ArcGIS Pro Guru, any ideas?

See if this approach behaves differently in isolation or in combination
