title: How can I vertically center a Multiline Textfield (dynamic, text-centered) to another MovieClip?
body: <p>Normally, to center an instance on the stage to another vertically horizontally, you can use simple logic and by referencing width, height, x and y co-ordinates of the symbols involved.</p>
  
  <p>This seems impossible in-situ, because Textfield.height and Textfield.textHeight report incorrect values. They bring back the same values, which don't reflect the actual height of the instance on the stage.</p>

  <p><del>I have crafted this simple example to illustrate the problem: <a href="http://omnom.replete.nu/fails.fla" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://omnom.replete.nu/fails.fla</a></del></p>
