I don't think you can. When I need centered text, I use an invisible textbutton.

Nice, but I cannot have more lines. I need to have quite some text displayed to read and I do not want everything on one line.

Is there a limit in characters you can enter in the textedit object? The object does not display the whole message.

I don't think there's a limit. You may just need to drag the lower-right corner of the textedit object to expand its size. I have long wished for the ability to do things like text justification in the various Max text-based objects like textedit and comment.

jit.cellblock is your friend.
