TextEdit text vertical alignment position is not updated correctly when TextEdit height is changed. Position is updated only when width is changed. with plain "Text"-item both works. Please see test and see both in attached main.qml. (left click to change height, right changes width)

Tested also that "TextInput"-item works fine. Issue is only with "TextEdit"-item. Maybe there's something missing that "Text" and "TextInput" has.

All above is valid when using Qt Quick 2.

Here is one solution worked for Qt Quick 1:

void QDeclarativeTextEdit::geometryChanged(const QRectF &newGeometry,
                                  const QRectF &oldGeometry)
{
//    if (newGeometry.width() != oldGeometry.width())
    if (newGeometry != oldGeometry)
        updateSize();
    QDeclarativePaintedItem::geometryChanged(newGeometry, oldGeometry);
}
