There's no control for that, no

I think you're on to something with the scripts for this. It just needs to be something invisible and automatic, or at least makes it easier than it currently is to change them as a set. Myself, I just set them up for project templates and that's where I leave them

I'm of the opinion that the left side should be the bottom of the text when set vertically. In book publishing, the titles on the spine are printed that way to be readable when the books are face up on a table (the words on the spine won't then be upside down). I prefer this for consistency. That said, isn't there an option in Reaper to change which way the text faces when set vertically?

Edit: yes, it's under "Appearance" in preferences. Looks like the routing matrix doesn't follow this setting

Actually, there may be, if there's some kind of mechanism to set the max TCP height. But I can't remember coming across that
