The Text attribute keys section of ContentMeta-Data states values for HAlign and VAlign to be words like "Center", "Left", "Top" etc, while the "roImageCanvas Attributes" section of the same page as well as roImageCanvas document notes the same strings but with V & H prefixes.

I suspect that the prefixes were relevant in an older version, right now using those values does not yield a desired effect

For roImageCanvas, you can specify TextAttrs.HAlign as "HCenter", "Center", or "Middle" all to the same effect.
Similarly for TextAttrs.VAlign you can specify "VCenter", "Center", or "Middle" all to the same effect.

Which option(s) are not working for you? Can you provide an example?

My Bad

I guess I just assumed that if you have Vertical parameters with the "V" prefix (like VCenter) that those prefixes will be accepted for all keywords like H+Right=HRight

but now see that the prefix was only processed for (the ambiguous?) "Center" as it can be a vertical or horizontal center
