• RUBY_ALIGNMENT: Display text according to the ruby.
• BASE_ALIGNMENT: Display characters according to the original characters.

This function allows you to have the same gap even if you don't use ruby. Empty this string to skip this feature.

• Removed:
  allVCompensationRuby / allVCompensationRubyLineHeight : If rubyLineHeight is an empty string, it will be the allVCompensationRuby:false value up to now, and if rubyLineHeight is a value, it will be the allVCompensationRubyLineHeight value.

Read more on Changelogs.

1. TextMeshPro source has not changed. So text alignment is problematic.

2. Do not make the text box smaller than the maximum number of characters in ruby. Display collapse will occur.

3. BASE_ALIGN setting is left align and the ruby is at the beginning of the line but more than the original character, it will be displayed outside the frame.

4. BASE_ALIGN setting is center align and the ruby is at more than the original character, can't displayed center. 'RUBY_ALIGN' used, it may be solved.

5. BASE_ALIGN setting is left align and the ruby is at the beginning of the line but more than the original character, Different from number 3 it will be displayed in the frame.
