### Description

Gets or sets a value specifying whether text is top aligned at the current input position. If text is selected, the property specifies this attribute for the whole selected text. In table cells text can be vertically aligned, at the top, at the bottom and centered. Outside of table cells, the vertical alignment is always at the top.

### Syntax

```csharp
public bool? TopAligned { get; set; }
```

```vbnet
Public Property TopAligned As Boolean?
```

### Examples

The following example changes the formatting applied to text entered at the end of a document by using `InputFormat.TopAligned`.

```csharp
textControl.Text = "Project summary";
textControl.InputPosition = new InputPosition(textControl.Text.Length);
InputFormat inputFormat = textControl.InputFormat;

inputFormat.TopAligned = true;
if (inputFormat.TopAligned != null)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Input Format: Top Aligned is available.");
}
```

```vbnet
textControl.Text = "Project summary"
textControl.InputPosition = New InputPosition(textControl.Text.Length)
Dim inputFormat As InputFormat = textControl.InputFormat

inputFormat.TopAligned = True
If inputFormat.TopAligned IsNot Nothing Then
    Console.WriteLine("Input Format: Top Aligned is available.")
End If
```

### Remarks

The property returns null when the text selection contains multiple table cells with mixed setting.
