Text objects: 'Truncate' overflow handling of text frames is broken when using non-top alignement.
Closed, ResolvedPublicKNOWN ISSUE

Description

Current Blender master.

Open the attached .blend and see how last frame's truncated text is totally offset from actual frame position. It needs some counter-offset somehow, not sure how to do this with current code though…

I'm not sure we actually want truncate to work for any alignment that is not top/top-baseline. That said D5246 fix the most common cases.

But why not? You mean because we truncate last words? Vertical center would still truncate last words, just center the whole thing. Bottom alignment also.

Would consider that more like a known issue/TODO than a bug actually…
