Dear all,
My problem is basically this: I'd like to center text vertically within a surrounding rectangle. However, when I use the built-in align tool, the text box rather than the text itself gets centered. Please see here for a screen shot.
The phenomenon makes perfect sense: the 'tail' of the y causes the bottom of the text box to be a bit lower than the bottom of most of the text. However, the consequence for me is that I must manually move down all text within the rectangle because it otherwise appears 'too high'.
Is there an efficient way to solve this?
Kind regards,
Ruben

Would using Text, Put on Path work? I've not tried going around a corner, but it does work on circles.
