Purpose

Syntax
*CENTRE [n|expression]
Description
This command is always used in combination with *QUESTION and must be specified after this command on the same line. It centers the answer categories automatically.
Arguments
n
This argument can be value 0 or 1. Value 1 indicates that the answer categories are automatically centered. The default value is 0 (not centered).
Remarks
- In
NIPOSYS.INI the following setting applies:
CentreCodes = n specifies whether the answer categories have to be centered or not, where n = 0 (not centered) or 1 (centered). Default is not centered. - When
*AUTO is applicable (i.e. the answer categories are divided on the screen) the *CENTRE command or the centering setting will be ignored. - When centering the answer categories, you can suppress the display of the category codes with the setting
HideCodes=1 in the file NIPOSYS.INI.
