SKLabelNode higher when it contains (q,y,p,g or j)

Question

For exemple I have two SKLabelNode: "Easy" and "Medium"

I set them at the same height but because easy contains a 'y', it is higher because of his tail

How can I put them at the same height?

On the screen they don't appear to be at the same place on the y axis — Clément Bisaillon, Feb 19 '16 at 20:40

You just need to set them in order to have the same position.y value

let easy = SKLabelNode(fontNamed:"Chalkduster")
easy.text = "Easy"
easy.fontSize = 45
easy.position = CGPoint(x:CGRectGetMidX(self.frame) - 200, y:CGRectGetMidY(self.frame))
self.addChild(easy)

let medium = SKLabelNode(fontNamed:"Chalkduster")
medium.text = "Medium"
medium.fontSize = 45
medium.position = CGPoint(x:CGRectGetMidX(self.frame) + 200, y:CGRectGetMidY(self.frame))
self.addChild(medium)

It works but for my project I need them to be vertically centered I've just realized that it was the problem. Is it posible to have the same y position if they are vertically centered? – Clément Bisaillon Feb 19 '16 at 20:50
@ClémentBisaillon: Sure, just try it ;-) – Luca Angeletti Feb 19 '16 at 20:53
