Processing 4.3 is out! ✨

Slightly different is possibly a slight understatement :wink:

I’m new to this game; started with Processing 4.2. I’ve always wondered why I had to adjust my vertical alignment of text inside a rectangle.

I haven’t written serious code yet but I basicall need to fix all prototype code now for using Processing 4.3.

Simple example

void setup()
{
  size(300, 100);
}

void draw()
{
  rectMode(CORNER);
  fill(0xFF00FFFF);

  int x = 50;
  int y = 50;
  int w = 200;
  int h = 30;

  // outer rectangle
  stroke(0xFF00FFFF);
  rect(x, y, w, h, 10);

  // inner rectangle
  stroke(0xFF000000);
  rect(x + 5, y +  5, w - 10, h - 10, 5);
  
  textSize(20);
  textAlign(CENTER, CENTER);
  fill(0xFF000000);
  text("Hello", x + w / 2, y + h / 2);
}

4.2
textalign42
4.3
textalign43

Note
I can live with it, it’s more a warning to others that encounter the same issue.
