Text fields are a mess

Ever since Storyline has the option to choose between scroll bars or autofit shape when it comes to text, I struggle to work with text fields. Here is an example. Two text fields. I removed all margins, alligned the text on Top. 

The left field is the smalles height I can get without the bloody scrollbars to ruin it and the right one is set to Allow text to overflow. Neither is remotly where I would want the text to sit in the text field. 

Am I missing something or is this just a huge mess?

  • Ah, the line spacing makes the difference. It was set to 1,5 which adds a ton of space on top of the first line of text. Not what I would expect from any software using typography. 

    Please have a look at this and see if you can't improve the UX on this feature. I preferred it the way it was before.
