<h5 id="GrapeCity_Documents_Text_TextLayout_AlignmentDelayToSplit_remarks">Remarks</h5>
<div class="markdown level1 remarks"><p>By default this property is false, and the text is completely aligned
by the <a class="xref" href="GrapeCity.Documents.Text.TextLayout.PerformLayout.html#GrapeCity_Documents_Text_TextLayout_PerformLayout_System_Boolean_">PerformLayout(bool)</a> method.
Setting this property to true delays complete alignment (e.g. justification)
till one of the Split* methods is called. This improves performance when dealing with large
amounts of text that is split between pages or columns, as it avoids aligning
portions of text that will need to be re-aligned later anyway.</p>
