Titles - How do you align text?

I'm trying to figure out to position separate lines of text in a basic title (or any title template, for that matter) so that I can format each line to start at different points. For instance, how can I make the first three lines centered and the next three lines start at the left margin.

Like this:

Line 1
Second Line

Line 3
Line 4
Line 5


There is probably a really simple answer, but I'm not to savvy with FCPX and I can't figure this out despite spending a good deal of time trying.

Any help would be appreciated

Thank you

Works, in the text tab of the inspector, just like any text editing app. Select first 2 lines, choose to center them. select next 3, left justify, etc…

Can't sleep? Try this: fcpxpert.net ;-)

I had tried that, but the justification tabs don't act as I would expect them to. If I select a line and hit "left justify," the sentence lines up with the beginning of the previous sentence where the hash-mark is. Center justify moves things to the right. Right justify in some cases moves the words completely out of view. The only way I've been able to get around this is to hit the space button until things are in more or less the right place, but it's trial and error and I don't feel like am really in control, just hit or miss and hope.
