Textbox Property - Do Not Autofit does not seem to be working
In my story I am populating a textbox by using a reference to a variable. As I populate the variable, it automatically transfers the string data into a textbox.

Hello all,
I totally agree with the final remark from Marcel. This upgrade-solution is very confusing.
I started working on a new project, based on an existing course. I then decided to give it a try with the text upgrade as it seems to be a good solution for translations. My reasoning: this new upgrade may reduce time spent to insert scroll panels for text objects that you do not want to change in font size and do not want to overflow in any direction.
Along the way of design, I miss the "shrink to fit" option at some instances. A very clear and obvious example is when pointing and naming elements in a visual. The name labels which are text objects need to be "fixed size" in order to prevent text covering the visual or other elements on the slide (after translation) but for a name label I do not want to add a scroll bar. In these cases I woud like to shrink the text to fit.
So, I will put in a feature request to add the overflow handling option "shrink to fit" for fixed size text objects. This cannot be very hard to implement.
Hi Patrick!
I wanted to confirm that I saw your request come through, and it is now logged. We'll be sure to update you if this makes it on our roadmap!
