Research direction
This issue requests adding support for the `dominantBaseline` property on the Text component in react native svg. To implement, you would need to modify the native SVG text element on both Android (Java) and iOS (Objective C/Swift) to accept and apply the property, then expose it via JavaScript. Look at existing text properties like `textAnchor` or `fontSize` for reference. Relevant files include `src/elements/Text.js`, `android/src/main/java/com/horcrux/svg/TextView.java`, and `ios/ViewManagers/RNTextManager.m`. The community discussion indicates interest but no assigned work, so you may want to clarify with maintainers if this is still desired.
