Alignment options for the banner text
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Not a problem, it's merely an enhancement.
The banner text is always centered blocking the image below always in the same area. I'm trying to use an image that has our branding on the right side, and having the banner text aligned on the left would make it clearly visible.
Describe the solution you'd like An additional option with the --title flag and the corresponding command, to let us select [left, center, right]
Describe alternatives you've considered For now we are playing with a taller image, and then placing the branding at the bottom of the banner, so it's not covered by text.
Sounds like a good enhancement
In the meantime, you can pad your title text with spaces to make room either on the left or right. If you have a fixed window size then you can launch swiftDialog in builder mode with dialog --bannerimage /path/to/bannerimage.png --bannertitle --builder and then interact with the title to fit the banner image you have already prepared.

Thanks @bartreardon that's a good approach for now; it doesn't work when the length of the string is variable (e.g. it has the name of the user) but it looks perfect if we keep it static.
I've tagged it as an enhancement so probably something I can add to a 2.5 release
Just spent the last 20 minutes looking for a way to do this exact thing... Hoping to see it in an upcoming 2.5.x release !
Thought SYM.bash was broken 😢 Started the Google trawling to only find it's not a thing (yet!) 👀
Definitely would love to see this as a enhancement !
