Area type centering option not working, text jumps to top of frame
When creating text frame with area type (it is not threaded nor multiple columns) set to center vertically, the text jumps to the top and will not center align at all. This is a function I have used in 2025 with no issues and now it will not work at all in 2026.

Can’t reproduce this in 30.1 on Windows.
I use very similar settings (and I assume Round Corners is an effect applied to the rectangle, correct?), but it looks as expected...
Please take a look at the document and the screenshot attached. Does it look the same when you open it in your Ai?
Can you share your file, if this only happens within it?
