Not able to edit text

AR23 Suddenly I'm unable to edit individual items in blocks of text. When the block of text is opened (double clicked) I'm shunted to an expanded view of the text which is too big to be of much use. Then when I painstakingly find where I'd like to edit, the editting looks like it is working, but when I get back to the normal screen level (by undocking and then redocking) the edit didn't take place.  It is ironic that I just want to finish this project before I upgrade to AR28.

Try zooming out a little before editing the text.

I am on a Windows machine and that does affect the size of the edit box.

Not sure about Macs.
