No way to fit text when entering title block data?
No way to fit text when entering title block data?
(OP)
Is there no way, when entering data in the title block, to get the text to resize either automatically (like in AutoCAD) or using a button like "Fit Text"? The latter button only works in notes, apparently. Seems like this functionality would have been implemented by now but I can't find anything. Currently the text will run out of the textbox and even off of the drawing.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

When I enter title block data it most certainly doesn't resize the text. Is there an option involved here that I might have turned off? Thanks.

Are you typing directly into it or is it linked to a model's custom properties?
If you create a new note, can you re-size the textbox, and does the text then wrap?

I am typing in directly.

Tried it. Doesn't make it wrap. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
Looks like I'm stuck manually changing the text font...

Strange ideas these former ACAD users have.
