Text Boxes

Somehow, the default starting position in my tex boxes has changed to the middle of the box. I want my text to start at the left. No matter how I change the anchor position, the text always starts in the middle of the box. I'm not sure what I have done, but I would sure like to correct this. Thanks...

This worked for one user:
1. Right click on a text box and select Format Text Box
2. Go to the Text Box tab and choose Text Anchor Point
3. Change it from Middle to Top (note: mine were set to middle, NOT one
of
the centered ones)
4. Set as default.

You might also want to see the archived threads "Centered text" and
"Default text alignment in text boxes" for more insight.

Go the the Slide Master and right click on the edge of the text box, set
justification to left, you have it set to centered
