Bug: Text not properly aligned (vertically) in GameSalad Previewer

This is a minor issue, but it distracted me, so I'm reporting it.

Basically, if you use the display text attribute, the text will automatically center-align itself vertically in an actor. However, in the GameSalad viewer, the text is displayed is a little bit lower than it actually would be on an actual device. (I used an iPod Touch for testing.)

    that is true, and more!
    if we use the alt+return to make a new line
    the text is going way off sync, something like 200 pixels to the left! (on the iphone)
    and this is my friend, is not a minor issue, taking into consideration that we talk about displaying text!
    which is the basic of the basic,
    i hope GS will fix all of the text bugs in the update to come.

    Okay...so... it's 2012 and I just ran across this problem. Apparently not fixed yet.

    I have found that the grey actor box in the editor is pretty accurate. So if you position the box in the editor correctly then things usually look pretty good on an iPhone.
