base = py5.height * 0.75
scalar = 0.8 # different for each font
py5.text_size(32) # set initial text size
a = py5.text_ascent() * scalar # calc ascent
py5.line(0, base-a, py5.width, base-a)
py5.text("dp", 0, base) # draw text on baseline
py5.text_size(64) # increase text size
a = py5.text_ascent() * scalar # recalc ascent
py5.line(40, base-a, py5.width, base-a)
py5.text("dp", 40, base) # draw text on baseline
