Re: Wrapping Text in Object

[Steffen Macke <sdteffen gmail com>]

Hi Dysier,

your point is valid. Automatic text wrapping would be nice but it would 
cause problems for those that
prefer to place their linebreaks themselves. If you're worried about a 
fixed width, you may also be
worried about a fixed height and automatic text wrap would cause height 
change problems. Unless
you start scaling the text at the same time. But this will result in 
strange looking diagrams (random
text size).

Have you thought about setting (reducing) the default text size for the 
object you're using to a value
that would allow you to stay well within the desired size of your objects?
If you have a fixed width in mind, why don't you start with resizing 
your objects to that size and wrap your texts accordingly during text 
entry? I would expect much more sensible results than any
automatic text wrapping could produce.

Steffen
