I noticed the same problem. In order to get right alignment working,
your face needs to be big enough. E.g. compare following two cases:
view layout [text right red blue "Right?"]
view layout [text 100 right red blue "Right?"]

hmm, dunno right now ... there's 'center-face function, but it just
seems to center the window:
view center-face layout [image %some-image.jpg]
maybe you coudl create any kind of sub-layout? Let's hope real View
gurus get in here quickly to help you :-)
Cheers and welcome to rebol-world :-)
