Thread Subject: vertical alignment of text in uicontrol

Is there really no vertical alignment option for GUI text objects 'text' and 'edit'? Is there a workaround?

Thanks,

text() offers 'HorizontalAlignment' and 'VerticalAlignment' parameters.

There is no such thing in Matlab as a "GUI text objects 'edit'"

uicontrol objects of Style 'text' or 'edit' offer a 'HorizontalAlignment'
option but no vertical alignment option.

Yes, if you are willing to go in at the Java level and reprogram how that
uicontrol works.

Perhaps the FEX contribution for scrollable editable tables would be of interest,
