How to vertical align a TextField in AS3

Question

I´m trying to vertical align some text in a Monoline TextField in AS3. Not sure if this can be done with TextFormat, but I don´t think so.

I´ve looked for a solution

If you are able to use a fl.text.TLFTextField instead of a flash.text.TextField (available from Flash Player 10+), you can vertically center the text using the verticalAlign property:

import flashx.textLayout.formats.VerticalAlign;
[...]
myTextField.verticalAlign = VerticalAlign.MIDDLE;
