Given some type of container how would I draw only the bottom half of a piece of text within the given container? Such that the top of the half of text (aka the middle vertical point if the text was fully drawn) touches the top of the parent container and the bottom touches the bottom of the parent container?

Sounds like you might need to use

Modifier.clip

with a rect shape that is half of the size of the text composable. Do you have a screenshot or a mock of what you are trying to build?

This should work:

Text(text = "Text", modifier = Modifier.clipToBounds().layout { measurable, _ ->
    val placeable = measurable.measure(Constraints())
    val halfHeight = placeable.height / 2
    layout(placeable.width, halfHeight) {
        placeable.place(0, -halfHeight)
    }
})

This worked perfectly! Thanks!
