How do I make the Text+ text container wider?

PostMon Sep 26, 2022 10:24 pm

Hi, I can't seem to figure out how to widen the display width of the Text+ box - so that it can accommodate longer lines of text.

Thanks!

Do you mean the editable text area that's displayed within the Text+ controls in the Inspector window? The Inspector window is a fixed size UI element in the Edit Page, you can't change it. You can get a marginally larger text area if you switch to viewing the effect in the Fusion Page, but theres not much in it. The text area has scroll bars to accommodate viewing long text lines.

Hi, thanks, no I mean the the in-video display. It clips the text after a certain width.

The text will span the entire width of the display by default, make sure to only make changes in the Title tab of the Text+, not the Settings tab.

Ah yes, thanks! I see now. Changing the zoom under settings is what was screwing me up. Appreciate it!
