react-native-elements, help center input text within FormInput












0















I'm using forms from react-native-elements and would like to center the input text. I've tried, alignSelf: 'center' as well as flex: 1, justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center' without any luck. All text continues to remain left aligned.

JFYI, I'm making adjustments to the inputStyle prop.



<FormInput 
...
inputStyle={styles.formInputText}
/>

          Try the textAlign attribute



          <FormInput 
          ...
          inputStyle={styles.formInputText}
          textAlign={'center'}
          />


          Also, you may want to upgrade your package as it looks like FormInput has been deprecated according to the docs...




          <FormInput /> is only available in v0.19.1 and below. <Input /> is only
          available in v1.0.0-beta1 and higher.

          • Awesome. That did the trick! I also ended up using alignSelf: 'center' to get it truly in the center.
