TextAlign() not working

Bugs

I am trying to make my text aligned to the left, but it stays aligned to the center. Can I have some help??

@DJMoffinz - could you post a little code to see what you are trying to do.

-- Area Calculator

-- Use this function to perform your initial setup
function setup()
    Pi = math.pi
    CenterX = WIDTH/2
    CenterY = HEIGHT/2
    CirclePos = WIDTH/4 +100
    parameter.number("Diameter",10,600,200)
end

-- This function gets called once every frame
function draw()
    textAlign(LEFT)
    TextPos = CirclePos + (Diameter/2) + 100
    LineThickness = 2.5+2.5*Diameter/600
    -- This sets a dark background color 
    background(25)
    
    strokeWidth(LineThickness)
    
    fontSize(14.5+(2.5+2.5*Diameter/600))

    -- Do your drawing here
    fill(255)
    
    if Diameter <= 181 then
        text("Diameter: "..string.format("%.2f",Diameter).."px",TextPos,CenterY)
        
    elseif Diameter >= 181 then
        text("Diameter: "..string.format("%.2f",Diameter).."px",CirclePos,(CenterY+12.5)+LineThickness)
        pushStyle()
        textAlign(CENTER)
        fontSize(17)
    end
    text("Radius: "..string.format("%.2f",Diameter/2) .."px",TextPos,CenterY -20)
    text("Area: "..string.format("%.2f",Pi*((Diameter/2)^2)).."px",TextPos,CenterY -40)
    text("Circumference: "..string.format("%.2f",Diameter*Pi).."px",TextPos,CenterY -60)
    pushStyle()
    noFill()
    ellipse(CirclePos,CenterY,Diameter)
    
    line(CirclePos - (Diameter/2 -4),CenterY,CirclePos + (Diameter/2 -4),CenterY)
end

@DJMoffinz If you want to use string.format to align text, here’s an example. You have to use a fixed width font, in this case Courier. Then you use values to define the sizes of the values you display. A minus sign before a value aligns left.

viewer.mode=FULLSCREEN

function setup()
    font("Courier-Bold")
    fill(255)
    t1="Diameter"
    v1=123.4567
    t2="Size"
    v2=23.65
    t3="Radius"
    v3=25.7654
end

function draw()
    background(0)
    text(string.format("%-15s%10.2f",t1,v1),WIDTH/2,HEIGHT/2+100)
    text(string.format("%-15s%10.2f",t2,v2),WIDTH/2,HEIGHT/2+50)
    text(string.format("%-15s%10.2f",t3,v3),WIDTH/2,HEIGHT/2)   
end
