text block width issues

[lasse]

When creating or editing a text block, the borders of the block extend the
full width of my monitor. If I create a block with predefined widths, it's
ok, but simply double clicking and starting a new one creates a "field" in
which it stretches from side to side full width of the monitor. Also,
editing a block will sometimes result in a impossible wide block that I
can't access the text editing pane, just the formatting pallettes. I have
done a new and reset and it works fine, but opening existing projects it is
still an issue. Any suggestions?

Yes this was noted in an earlier thread. Myself and another user indicated it has happened. I dont think it has happened since going back to my G4 computer (we were both using a G5)- what is your set up (tip put it in your signature in your profile).

Sage advice, however I wasn't present for the thread nor did I find one on my travels. Care to enlighten me to the fix (or at the very least an idea of where I can find this thread)?

I didnt link to a thread because not much was discussed except it does happen. No one offered any solution
