--- Comment #4 from [email protected] <[email protected]> --- I'm unsure, but I think you're missing the point of my original submission. It's not a bug, so there's no failure to reproduce. And, it's not a question of whether the text area fills the shape by default, which it does. My observation is that the text area box should be movable and resizable by mouse and/or keyboard without having to resort to a context menu selection. Currently, adjusting the text box position requires at least one and likely multiple invocations of the Text Attributes dialog to get a desired spacing effect. My best example of the need for a new behaviour is the placement of the text box on a connector between two vertically arranged flow chart elements. After placing the connector and double-clicking the connector to enter text, the resulting text box appears centered over the connector. I resort to the Text Attributes dialog to move the text off the line. If my spacing value estimation is incorrect, I have to re-enter the dialog (another right-click, select Text Attributes, change a value, click OK). Just let the user click-drag the text box. TBH, in version 7.6.2.1, I cannot reproduce the original text positioning behaviour that forced me to adjust text placement on any multi-line flowchart object text box. The text box now appears better placed initially. If you're discussing something else entirely, my apologies for interjecting :-). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
