Enhancement Request

(OP)
I'm not using SW 2015 yet. Anybody know if there's a text wrap feature on Stacked Balloon Callout?

RE: Enhancement Request

I don't think there is, though I've never needed it.

Yeah, I never have either, however I'm doing a bunch of projects that require extensive identification properties in the balloon callouts, and rather than breaking them up and stacking the balloons on top of each other, it would be nice to have a sizing box and have the text automatically wrap down to the next line. (That's probably my only option, huh? Have the stacked balloons vertical - and break up the text on my own?)

I'm not really looking for a solution - just proof of sanity as it pertains to this problem.

Please excuse my ignorance here, you said, 'double click the balloon and type in your line breaks.' -I'm okay with that. How do you type in your line breaks? I don't think it's a simple as <RETURN> - and I'm pretty sure it's not ALT-<RETURN> . Is there an ALT-key code I wasn't aware of?

My bad - it is as simple as double-clicking and pressing return. (I think it might have been different in an earlier version, and I never learned an easier way.) -operator error
