V Offset

Descenders
Lowers the bottom of the frame to accommodate lower case
descender characters like g, j and y.
Spaces
Frames the spaces between words.
Priority
Determines whether the frame appears in front of or behind other
details. By default, Deko500 assigns a priority to each detail so
that they render from front to back, in the order they appear in the
Details list. Use Priority to change the rendering order. Priority
ranges from 0 (closest to viewer) to 1000 (farthest from viewer).
Priority also controls the rendering order of overlapping details
from different styles.
To next detail
Determines what this frame will send to the detail immediately
below it in the Details list:
previous
sends whatever was sent to the frame from the detail above it.
this
sends the frame only.
merged
sends the combination of the frame and whatever was sent to
the frame from the detail above it.
