  • I believe the use of "VA" is used as merely a visual to show the space between the V and the A. "VA" doesn't actually represent anything as far as I'm aware, it's not an acronym -- unless maybe for "visual adjustment"?? But I doubt that. :)

  • What's the property for the A with an underscore?

It's called Tracking. Tracking (sometimes called letterspacing), controls the consistent space between letters across a block of text, and affects a word or text block overall. Here's a helpful image from Adobe Help website:

    If you mouse over the "VA" icon an explanation pops up: "Set the tracking for the selected characters".

  • Please don't ask separate questions in the comments section. And as was mentioned above, you can hover over any item in PS to get an explanation pop-up.
