I mentioned previously when Draw Text At End = Yes when attached to Line Tool was off. This is fixed with latest issue, however the Text on other End is still off.

We checked and we do not see an issue with this. Check the Text Horizontal Alignment and set that as you require.

The alignment functions exactly as it should.

My previously attached screenshot shows the issue.

I have dozens of charts some that have hundreds of lines with text drawn now displaying off to the left with the latest release.

It looks like SC fixed the Horizontal alignment but now all existing charts w/Lines - Text have a default Horizontal Alignment: Right which displaces the text.

Please don't tell me I have to spent HOURS clicking through and resetting hundreds of Lines / Text properties.

The "Line" properties allow for the text to be aligned "Left", "Right", or "Auto". This is separate from the option for "Draw Text at End". Therefore adjusting the Horizontal Alignment shifts the text to the right or left at that particular end of the line. In order to words, to get what you are wanting, the line horizontal alignment should be set to "Left".

We do not see any changes that would have changed this. We went back to version 2730, added a line and then updated to the current release and the alignment stayed as we had set it up.
