selected text object.
Specifying a base point for the operation does not change the insertion point
relative to the text.
The base point options shown above are described in the TEXT command.
The base point options for single line text are similar to those for multiline
text except that the Align, Fit, and Left text options are equivalent to the
bottom left (BL) multiline text attachment point.
