How do I increase the size of the text box for individual MATCHING QUESTIONS? The maximum text field is three (3) lines. The text is so smaller it is difficult to read for specific matching pairs of CHOICES & MATCHES. I cannot find a control to increase the text box for single CHOICE/MATCH item.
Text in Matching Drag and Drop questions will automatically adjust size to fit inside the drag-and-drop objects. This is by design. If this is not desirable, you could utilize a Freeform version and another common alternative is to use a Matching Drop Down question type instead.
I tried the matching drop-down option as suggested. That did not permit any more "text" space than the original matching format. I could not resize the drop-down boxes to meet my requirements.
But, I appreciate the feedback.

Hi Tom! It sounds like the Freeform Drag and Drop would work best for you. Then you can re-size objects as needed.
I also want to mention that responding via e-mail adds your signature to the forum, not sure if you want to pop in and edit that :)
