Reply To: hanging indents on centered text

The tip center on the longest line does not suit what I need. nice tip I can use that in another part of the book

I have a figure text box that is 2.5″ wide or 5″
what I need to do is center the text in this text box
no problem for that all I have to do is set the center option.
but if the the text line is too long the second line will flow and also be centered.
what I would like is that the second and all other lines line up with the first word in the figure description
it would be very useful
many figures in this book that I am working on

Again thank you for the help
