Yes, much awaited. To address the need for more flexible text alignment, a possible solution could be the development of an advanced Vertical Align Text Tool. This tool would revolutionize text placement by introducing the option to append new lines of text upwards, breaking away from the traditional downward flow.

There's a widespread demand for a Vertical Align Text Tool, addressing the common issue that not all text aligns at the top. The convenience of such a tool lies in its ability to append new lines of text upward, rather than the standard downward progression. Imagine a feature where clicking the "Middle" button allows new lines to expand both upward and downward from the initial insertion point. Moreover, if a Text Square is utilized, the text would intuitively position itself at the vertical center of the designated area, ensuring a balanced and visually appealing layout.

Don't hold your breath. It's rare that Adobe adds features that are actually useful to designers. They're all about, "What new flashy feature can we add, like AI or 3D stuff?"

I've still been waiting for the simple-to-implement feature of graphic styles that work the way they do in InDesign or Illustrator, where you can redefine styles and update any elements that use that style. Would be a heck of a lot easier than copying and pasting Layer Styles when you have a document with 200 layers.

I figured this surely had to be a feature in Photoshop, but then i discovered this thread.

Of course no response after 4 years. That is how Adobe works. They just don't care about it. They have your money already. Why should they give you a basic feature xD ?
