If an example from the manual doesn't work, I consider it a serious 
bug.  I just
checked this example on 2.7.5, and it works; what version are you 
using?  Did
you copy the whole example?

I think that you'd need to use a text script for that, but you should 
be able to
use a similar trick to right-align the text script.

See chapter 9 for info on how to do this kind of fancier stuff.
