I tried various widths and have the same problem with anything 400 and under. At 401, no more problem. Under 400, I tried adjusting the element % and padding with no luck. Is this a problem that is being worked on??

I would open a support topic. Then post back when you get an answer.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Zip up the file and attach it as suggested earlier. The best way for anyone to really help would be to see the file in use to better adjust things with it. It's really very difficult to help if you can't see what's happening other than a screen shot. :)

There is a way to do what you are trying to do (providing I understand the issue here). I am under the impression you are trying to center the main Title line. Then trying to center the text under that line (all depends on how many words there are etc.).

Change the width of the Title line to something like 75%. Now go in and adjust the padding on the left side for that line to move it over to where you want it.
Do the same thing for the text line under it.
If you have more than 1 line of text under the title line, I would suggest using separate plain text boxes for each line if you are wanting them centered.

Hope that helps.

Another thing to do is to left aline your text in the Plain text box. Keep it all in one line (no hard line breaks basically) and then give it a smaller percent width of about 75% or until the width is what you want. Now do the same thing as above, add left padding to the box until the box is centered and of course ignore the grey of the box as that's just highlighting the element to show you which one you're working on :)

P.S. This will work with text centered too, just that it looks better when not centered.

That's what's going to be needed as the form builder seems to have a set width in mind for elements, so once the form width goes below 401 things need to be tweaked to get them back to center.:(
