Subject: centering framed boxes
Date: Sat, 14 May 2005 20:39:18 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <42DF4ABB@webmail.colostate.edu> (raw)
Dear gang,
I need a way to overlay four framed boxes so that each inner box is exactly in
the center of its respective outer box. So far I have the following, but
careful inspection will show that the boxes are not precisely centered with
respect to each other. I could go on by trial and error but I'm sure there is
a direct way to do this.
The text should also be precisely centered between frames.
Thank you in advance!
Idris
