How to justify text in a TextInput vertically

Question

So I have a simple question: how can you justify text in a TextInput vertically?

Answer 1

Yeah, sorry, I should have given more details. Basically I have a TextInput component with a height of 48 so even though it is a one line component it looks like there is a lot of space below the text. The component in question is created dynamically during run-time. So I was tasked with making the text appear in the middle (vertically) of the TextInput. Is this not possible at all? Surely there is some way to do it.
Here is the Actionscript code that creates the components:
import fl.controls.TextInput;
import flash.text.TextFormatAlign;
var gridArr:Array = new Array();
var w = 80;
var h = 48;
var rowNumber = 10;
var startX = 5;
var startY = 30;
var newTextFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
newTextFormat.font = "Arial";
newTextFormat.size = 16;
newTextFormat.bold = true
newTextFormat.color = 0x1E1E1E;
newTextFormat.align = TextFormatAlign.JUSTIFY;
newTextFormat.leading = 5;
for (var i:Number = 0; i < 8; i++)
  gridArr[i] = new Array();
  for (var j:Number = 0; j < rowNumber; j++)
   var newCell:Cell =  new Cell();
   newCell.initialize(i, j);
   newCell.cellText.setStyle("textFormat", newTextFormat);
   newCell.cellText.width = w;
   newCell.cellText.height = h;
   newCell.x = (i*w) + startX;
   newCell.y = (j*h) + startY;
   //newCell.cellText.text = "("+newCell.gridX+","+newCell.gridY+")";
   //newCell.cellText.tabEnabled = false;
   gridArr[i][j] = newCell;
for (j = 0; j < rowNumber; j++)
for (i= 0; i < 8; i++)
  addChild(gridArr[i][j]);
