  Hi Theo,

  I tried to reproduce the problem but I failed.

  Here is the code I used:

  # create a first layout and a single text with alignment flags
  
  ly = RBA::Layout::new(true)
  top = ly.create_cell("TOP")
  l1 = ly.layer(1, 0)
  t = RBA::Text::new
  t.string = "abc"
  t.valign = 2
  t.halign = 1
  top.shapes(l1).insert(t)
  
  puts "listing of shapes in 'top' (L1):"    
  top.shapes(l1).each do |s|
    puts s.text.to_s + " valign:" + s.text.valign.to_s + " halign:" + s.text.halign.to_s
  end
  
  # create a second layout and use move_tree to transfer the shapes from the first to the second layout
  
  ly2 = RBA::Layout::new(true)
  top2 = ly.create_cell("TOP")
  
  puts "Applying move_tree .."
  top2.move_tree(top)
  
  puts "listing of shapes in 'top' (L1):"
  top.shapes(l1).each do |s|
    puts s.text.to_s + " valign:" + s.text.valign.to_s + " halign:" + s.text.halign.to_s
  end
  

  The output for the current version 0.24.5 is:

  listing of shapes in 'top' (L1):
  ('abc',r0 0,0) valign:2 halign:1
  Applying move_tree ..
  listing of shapes in 'top' (L1):
  listing of shapes in 'top2' (L2):
  ('abc',r0 0,0) valign:2 halign:1
  

  From this log it seems as if the text alignment flags are transferred properly (2 and 1 is an arbitrary choice, but it's not default). So at least this basic application seems to work.

  Any idea?
