It would be useful to be able to choose a vertical alignment (relative to the y offset) for text added using images.Text. This becomes useful in the following scenarios when the number of lines of text is not fixed.

  • Centering text vertically.
  • Creating an Open Graph image with a subtitle at a fixed distance below the title. This can be achieved by making the title "bottom" aligned and the subtitle "top" aligned and having the same y offset for both texts.

It is not currently possible to implement these using only the y option which sets a vertical offset for the top of the text relative to the top of the image.

Vertical alignment would complement the horizontal alignment feature (alignx) mentioned in #10849 and added in #13223.

images.Text: Add option for vertical alignment
d089c32 
Add option ``aligny`` to specify the vertical alignment of the text
with respect to the ``y`` offset from the top of the image. Possible
values of ``aligny`` are ``top`` (default), ``center``, and ``bottom``.

The height of the block of text is measured from the top of the first
line to the baseline of the last line.

- ``top``: (Current behaviour) The top of the first line of the block of
  text is at an offset of ``y`` from the top of the image.

- ``center``: The vertical center of the block of text is at an offset of
  ``y`` from the top of the image.

- ``bottom``: The baseline of the last line of the text is at an offset
  of ``y`` from the top of the image.
