| Constant | Alignment |
|---|---|
| fa_left | |
| fa_center | |
| fa_right | |
draw_set_halign(halign);

N/A
draw_set_halign(fa_left);
draw_text(100, 32, "Score: " + string(score));
draw_set_halign(fa_right);
draw_text(room_width - 100, 32, "Health: " + string(health));
The above code will draw two strings on the same line, with the score being left-hand aligned and the health being right-hand aligned.
