How to center a TextArea

jayloganFeb 8 2014 — edited Feb 10 2014

I have a JavaFX non-editable TextArea that I use to display info. I do so because I want the text to automatically wrap the text that can sometimes be long.

However, I cannot get the text to be centered. The CSS style

-fx-text-alignment: center

works for Text objects, not TextArea objects.

Does anyone know how to center the text in a non-editable TextArea? Should I use an alternative control to display my information instead?         

Thank you
