Vertically aligning text in a field

Hi Jaque,

I needed to know where the hGrid line of line 1 shows.

I did not get there by adding:

top of field, topMargin, borderSize and effective textHeight. 

So I don't know what I missed but that calculation gives me a 7 pixel offset
i.e. the position is 7 pixel below the hGrid of line 1. I don't know what
these 7 pixel are.
Then I went into experimentation mode and found that empiric formula.

Maybe someone has an idea how to calculate the hGrid position of line 1 of
an EMPTY field in a straight forward way.

Kind regards
Bernd
