I've been selecting the text first, then the Alignment Tool, then the center option.

Vocabulary interpretation problem? the text first... nope, I did not write that, and sure enough that won't work it that order 

1. Select Alignment tool first,
   
2. then click on the text on the canvas (not on a transparent part, but the text itself)
   
3. then the center button/option
   

But... what is defined in the tool options? Center "Relative to" what?
