[SOLVED] text alignment in tinyMCE

In the backend using tinyMCE and template default or NClearBlue all text is centered by default.

This is in the css of NClearBlue

Code: Select all

p {
	padding: 0;
	margin-top: 0.5em;
    margin-bottom: 1em;
   text-align:left;
}
So why isn't the text aligned left?

In the frontend all is correctly aligned left.

Because Tiny grabs the BODY css, i think is fixed in 1.6.1 and current version.

Was this a clean install of 1.6?...

I had 2 clean installs of 1.6: local on a WAMP server and on line.

On the WAMP server I did an upgrade to 1.6.1.

The problem exists on both versions.

I found a nice and simple work around:
Go to Extentions - TinyMCE - Advanced
and add this code to Additions to stylesheet:

Code: Select all

p{
text-align: left;
}
or

Code: Select all

body{
text-align: left;
}
You can immediately see that it works at the example below this stylesheet window.

Doing an upgrade will not effect any of the style sheets, it has to be a clean install to get new style sheets etc...
