A Types custom field (multi-line textarea) is centered in the Layouts Visual Editor but renders without the text-align: center.

Hello,

It is expected result, the Types plugin will output the "textarea" value in a HTML P tag, so it will conduct the problem you mentioned above, you can simply change the outsider P tag to HTML DIV tag, for example:

<div style="text-align: center;">[types field='test-ml'][/types]</div>

And test again.

Okay. I'm personally undecided if I'd call this a bug still or not - because multiline does not have WYSIWYG-type alignment controls - but I appreciate the workaround.
