I have a rich edit view with menu options for center, left, and right justification of paragraphs. I need to add full justification (both left and right) but I can't find any support for that in MFC. Does anyone know how?
thanks.
 
If you dig around in the platform documentation for Rich Edit controls, you will realize that there are three different versions of Rich Edit controls. The MFC implementation of CRichEditCtrl wraps the rich edit 1.0 control.

The Justify alignment is only implemented in Rich Edit 3.0. RE3 is only available in Windows 2000, ME and XP however, Sorry.

You will have to insert a Custom Control with the correct Window Class of the version of Rich Edit you want to use.

Look at Rich Edit 3.0 and the PARAFORMAT2 structure.
