This is the corresponding tool in InDesign

Sadly, there's still no update with this feature. For now, I have to enter my text, set the boundries of my text box where I want them, then scale them together till the bottom line of the text touches the text box in order to center vertically. The problem with that is I have to do it again every time the text gets changed. A simple button that would center the text like InDesign does would be tremendously helpful.

It's non sense that Photoshop doesn't support this simple fetaure.

When you dsay "correct", what is it you are doing? A lot of text adjustments can be scripted.

That's also my use case. I have to correct all multiline texts in PSD files I created through the data-driven approach manually. This feature would really be great.

Lying to other is disrespectful, is it not? I suppose I can just tell people what they want to hear.

@Lumigraphics Photoshop is 100% a design tool. That's why it has artboards. My company uses it to design web banners of multiple sizes every week in the same file. It has built-in vector capabilities, text styling features, and more. If it was purely for image editing, Adobe would not have added artboards. It would be incredibly difficult to build multiple web banners in an app like InDesign, even though it supports multiple pages (it's not the same thing). Though somewhat easier in Illustrator, that app does not have the ability to fade layers easily. Illustrator should add a transparency tool like InDesign. Would make things a lot easier. But anyway...
