AmbientAttributes.verticalAlignment

The verticalAlignment attribute specifies or retrieves a value indicating the vertical placement of the control when the VIEW or parent SUBVIEW is stretched.

Syntax

  

Possible Values

This attribute is a read/write String.

Value Description
top Default. Maintains the placement of the control relative to the top of the VIEW or parent SUBVIEW when the view is resized.
bottom Maintains the placement of the control relative to the bottom of the VIEW or parent SUBVIEW when the view is resized.
center Maintains the placement of the control relative to the vertical center of the VIEW or parent SUBVIEW when the view is resized.
stretch Maintains the placement of the control relative to both the top and bottom margins of the View when resized. The control stretches to fit when the VIEW or parent SUBVIEW is stretched. The actual image does not grow or shrink unless it is resizable, but the clickable area grows or shrinks if not bounded by a clippingImage.

Remarks

Unless verticalAlignment is set to "center", the control retains its original distance from the specified edge, or from both edges if "stretch" is specified and the control is resizable. If the control is not resizable and "stretch" is specified, the clickable region is stretched instead.

You can set any combination of the horizontalAlignment and verticalAlignment attributes. For example, if you want a control to be centered both horizontally and vertically, set horizontalAlignment to "center" and verticalAlignment to "center".

Requirements

Windows Media Player version 7.0 or later.
