Is there a way to horizontally align a text in a textarea from awt? There is a getAlignment method but not a setAlignment. And I just want to use awt, not swing

You should try putting your components(eg TextArea) into containers it makes laying them out a much less stressfull task.

Take a look here: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/layout/visual.html

GridLayout or BorderLayout may be ones you should take a look at in particular. Best of luck!

There is no alignment property for a TextArea. The alignment is determined by which LayoutManager you are using.
