Text edit window problem

Anonymous — Fri, 26 May 2023 13:16:00 GMT

I'm being frustrated with the text edit window not showing correctly what will be the final output once the text is placed. This shows the correct placed output.

and this shows the text within the text edit window. Please note that I am not setting a text window size before starting to type the text. I've always felt that that tends to limit the size of the text window and the word wraps may not be in the locations that you would intend.
At least it is consistent... it displays wrong in plotmaker and archicad.

millard-

Not only have I had the problem you describe, but check this out:

take an existing single line of text that will wrap down to a second line.

start typing anywhere in the line of text, and type enough so the text will wrap to the second line.

as the text hits the wrap point, watch in amazed dissapointment as the cursor jumps up to the first line of the text block and keeps typing, screwing up your note.

Anybody seen this behavior before?

I noticed this behaviour as well, but it seems to correct itself when the text is placed.This other behaviour was just easier to document.
