sure but i want to see why something you expect to work doesn's

tolerance in text/par alignment is just that: adding tolerance and it is 
bound to align and it only kicks in in par building and there is not 
always a par involved

location has to do with the placement and float as a whole and there 
tolerance has to deal with snapping

so ... unrelated tolerances
