I got problem with Hershey Text extensions. It ignores the centered text alignment and goes aligned to the left. How to solve this? I haven't this problem on previous version.
Inkscape has at least four different ways to lay out text, each of which uses different internal formatting. Some of these don't always work correctly due to known (long-standing) bugs, and others may have changed in the most recent version. It's very easy to switch form one text layout method to another without noticing, since they are very subtle and don't necessary report that difference to the user.
I'd recommend trying plain text from a fresh block, or if using flowed text, switching to using SVG2 style flowed text; you can find the option under Preferences > Tools > Text.
Unfortunately switching SVG2 doesn't help. Hershey text ignores centered alignment on both.
But I think I found a bug.
I've "Text Tool" set to be center alignment as default. To get centered Hershey Text I've to manually set it again (for example set "right alignment" and then "centered alignment"). After that, it works on first text box and copied text boxes as well. Works no matter if "SVG2 auto-flowed text" is turned on.
Unfortunately, the issue is much more complex and subtle than it might seem at first. We're tracking it here: https://gitlab.com/oskay/hershey-text/-/issues/7 , and at the related issues linked there.

Thank You for your reply with explanation :)
