It's just the way it is designed. The attachment point is the bottom of the text in all cases. The top echo is working because Jmol makes sure the text is not off-screen and so adjusts it downward.
You can get it more centered using something like: set echo myecho 50% 45% set echo myecho center #left/right alignment echo "line 1 | line 2 | line 3" But of course that depends upon the applet size. We have no option for vertical text alignment at this point.
