Unfortunately there is no basic test alignment commands.

The way I get around this is to use the monospaced text style.

Monospaced, is the only style which give the same width for each text character.

Since all characters are the same width,  prefacing the required text with spaces,

gives an element of control and allows you to move the text in relationship to the overall centred text block.

A example of left aligning would be to pre fill the same number of space of the text before the text.

The equal spacing of characters, moves the wanted text to start at approximately the middle of block, depending on odd/even number of characters.

Using a combination of monospaced characters, and spaces before and/or after can give enough control to place and align text in most places.

With other styles this doesn’t work as well, because different characters have different widths relative to the space character.
