QLineEdit setAlignment doesn't set the Vertical alignment

[Marcus Aseth]

This is my code below:

MainWindow::MainWindow(CoreDictionary const& dict)
	: QMainWindow(nullptr), dict{dict}
{
	ui.setupUi(this);
	ui.searchField->setAlignment(Qt::AlignVCenter | Qt::AlignRight);
}

MainWindow::MainWindow(CoreDictionary const& dict)
	: QMainWindow(nullptr), dict{dict}
{
	ui.setupUi(this);
	ui.searchField->setAlignment(Qt::AlignVCenter | Qt::AlignRight);
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

the Qt::AlignRight is there not because I need it, but to prove the function is taking effect - the problem though is that Qt::AlignVCenter has no effect, I cannot get the text to align vertically, here's an image of the result:

Before you ask, I'm sure I'm not accidentally changing the Vertical Alignment anywhere else in the code, this because is a new project and that is pretty much all my code...
