Turning off Auto-Fill option

May 28, 2021

Hi All,

Up until today I didn't know this option existed. After starting working on a project I found multiple text boxes auto filling and sizing.

I have looked for a way to turn this off, browsed other articles and no such answer has been found.  

Please see attachment for the "autofill" options where turning it off, is not an option.

Any assistance here would be great - I also vouch for the "global" option of this to be created which others have already mentioned.

Kind regards,

Justin

Hi Justin,

It's actually an auto-fit option rather than autofill, and Articulate just added it in their latest release. The expand height option seems like the closest to the old way, with text boxes expanding vertically as text is added. The fixed size option adds a scroll bar as text gets too large for the box, which to me is an improvement over automatically resizing the text.

Here's more information:
