there is no button for text alignment feature that make users able to change text alignment directly (align left, center, right)
(from the toolbar without having to open the node editor dialog every time to change the text alignment)
I think that this button is very important, it is maybe the most missing feature in Freeplane, can you add this button, Dimitry?
The second issue:
there is a problem with Freeeplane, you can't move multiple nodes together at the same time, when I select multiple nodes and try to move them
by dragging the mouse, only the first node moves, while the others do not, can you fix this problem by making all the selected nodes move
together when they dragged?
Thanks

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Regarding the text alignment: Freeplane stores the text as plain text by default. (This supports focusing on the content, instead of the details of its format and it also has many advantages for technical Freeplane applications.) Alignment is only available for HTML text since alignment is implemented as a text property and HTML can only be entered via the dialog. This perhaps explains the fact that Freeplane don't have such buttons.
Although I only rarely use text formatting I do sometimes miss the possibility to quickly align (mostly center) the text, especially of root nodes. But it doesn't actually annoys me so much that I thought about implementing the feature you asked for.
Probably the easiest solution would be a package of three scripts for left/centered/right alignment which could be used with keyboard combinations. Find (simplistic) scripts attached.
This would give a nice add-on - I could do that if anyone find it useful.

The script was helpful. Thanks. I also appreciate seeing how you programed it so I can learn from your script. Awesome. Thanks again!
