[Android] textAlignVertical doesn't work on nested text
See original GitHub issue- I have reviewed the documentation
- I have searched existing issues
- I am using the latest React Native version
textAlignVertical works fine when set on the top-most Text component. However, if you have any nested texts (a common use case), you can not override the alignVertical in the child Text component.
Environment
OS: macOS Sierra 10.12.6 Node: 9.3.0 Yarn: 1.3.2 npm: 5.6.0 Watchman: 4.9.0 Xcode: Xcode 9.2 Build version 9C40b Android Studio: 2.3.3
Packages: (wanted => installed) react: 16.3.0-alpha.1 => 16.3.0-alpha.1 react-native: 0.55.0 => 0.55.0
Steps to Reproduce
- Use this expo app OR create a nested Text component with the same height as its parent & give it a textAlignVertical
Expected Behavior
The child Text’s textAlignVertical should be honored.
Actual Behavior
The child Text’s textAlignVertical is NOT honored. See screenshots below for two different cases:
| textAlignVertical on parent Text | textAlignVertical on child Text |
|---|---|
