Itty bitty user-generated text

Greetings, Heros

I'm trying to simulate a LinkedIn profile for a college class in job seeking successes.  Currently, I have input fields for users to type their information about jobs, education, etc. 

The problem I am running into is that this information needs to go into a scrolling field for the instructor to review.  I can get it into the textbox, but the text is very very small.  Editing the textbox has no discernible results.  What is the solution to this?  If there are no solutions, anyone have a clever idea to get around the issue?

    Set a textbox to the size you want. Ensure the textbox is set to 'Do not autofit'. Add the textbox ( and every other needed elements ) to a Scrolling Panel, and it works as intended.

    Do have to admit i personally donot like the Scrolling Panels... they are somewhat cumbersome to work with...but this way you can handle it.

      Thank you so much. I'm not a fan of scrolling fields either, but don't see a way around them right now.

      Again, thanks!
