: Inkscape Font-specific Baseline Drop in Flow Region (Text Box) When I change my font, my baseline drops inside of a flowRegion (text box). Specifically the Cardo font (I have not noticed others);

When I change my font, my baseline drops inside of a flowRegion (text box). Specifically the Cardo font (I have not noticed others); see the image below.

How do I adjust the baseline so the font starts at the top of the text region?

Steps to reproduce:

Get/install the Cardo Font
Open Inkscape 0.91 (Windows 7?)
Draw a text box
Type text
See its baseline where you would expect
Select text and choose Cardo font
See its baseline drop bad

For what it is worth, this was not a problem in the past, likely with a previous version of Inkscape (0.48?). I discovered the problem when opening a previous .svg file and found my text was missing (well, it was not missing it was just too low to see).

: Easy fix for you. With the Direct Select chosen A change the top to Select: Active Layers - it sounds like you've got it on Select: All Layers currently.
