Section View Style : Title Annotation

We have a project where the alignment is not in the center of the section (it's along one edge of the project), but we want the Title Annotation ("STA. 165+00") to show up in the center of the sections.

 

If you choose "Center" justification in the style, it "centers" it about the zero offset, which in our case is actually the left side.

Is there any way to truly center this call, short of turning it OFF and manually creating separate labels?

 

Unfortunately, I can't use "Center" and give it a "Y" offset, because the alignment does vary slightly (±30 feet) within these 250' cross sections - which would cause the label to vary by that much also...

Does using the top axis title slot for section view station keep it in the center of the section?

Thank you

I think the first response you got was correct but it wasn't 100% clear.  I had this issue as well and I just got it resolved. What I did was to use the 'Axis Title Text' box option rather than the 'Graph View Title'.  In the case of the Axis Title Text it doesn't matter whether you use top, bottom, or sides, it will justify it to the center of the section view rather than the center of the alignment.  You may need to go into your display tab and make sure that the axis title is turned on and the graph view title is turned off.
