Yes, you can specify any character in the 'Fill Character' field to pad your text. ### What happens if my text is longer than the target length? The tool will keep the text as is, as it only adds padding to reach the target length. ### How does auto-detect length work? When enabled, the tool identifies the longest line in your input and uses that as the target length for all other lines. ### Will this tool remove existing spaces? If you enable 'Trim Leading/Trailing Spaces', the tool will clean up existing whitespace before applying the new alignment. ### Is there a limit to the amount of text I can align? The tool is designed for standard text processing tasks; very large documents may be processed in sections. ## Related tools - [Text Justifier](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/text-justifier): Quickly stretch spaces between words to make all text lines equal length - [Text Left Aligner](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/text-left-aligner): Quickly align text to the left side - [Text Pad & Align](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/text-pad): Pad text to a fixed width and align it left, right, center, or justified, with a chosen pad character. - [JavaScript Deobfuscator](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/javascript-deobfuscator): Deobfuscate and analyze obfuscated JavaScript code to improve readability and understanding - [NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS)](https://elysiatools.com/en/tools/nihss-score): Calculate the NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS) to quantify acute stroke neurologic deficit across 11 categories (15 scored items, with left & right limb motor graded separately). Items: 1a Level of consciousness (0–3), 1b LOC questions (0–2), 1c LOC commands (0–2), 2 Best gaze (0–2), 3 Visual fields (0–3), 4 Facial palsy (0–3), 5a/5b Motor arm left/right (0–4 each), 6a/6b Motor leg left/right (0–4 each), 7 Limb ataxia (0–2), 8 Sensory (0–2), 9 Best language (0–3), 10 Dysarthria (0–2), 11 Extinction/inattention (0–2). Both left and right limb motor scores are summed into the total (standard NIHSS); the tool also reports the more-affected side (max of left/right) for clinical context. Range 0–42; higher = more severe. Interpretation: 0 no symptoms, 1–4 minor, 5–15 moderate, 16–20 moderate-to-severe, 21–42 severe. Derived from Brott et al. 1989 (Stroke) and NINDS instructions. Scoring reliability is examiner-dependent and should be performed by trained personnel.
