I tried this little game
Insertion of "invisible" space chars to force wrap after each char...
fld 1 is text sample, fld 2 is the textSize of inserted space chars
Funny thing: with textSize 5, no wrapping, with textSize 1, wrapping etc..
Did'nt lock screen to see what happens, have a look it's funny.... :-)
on mouseUp
put the length of cd fld 1 into L
if space & space is in cd fld 1 then
repeat with x=L down to 1
if textSize of char x of cd fld 1 is cd fld 2
then delete char x of cd fld 1
end repeat
else
repeat with x=L down to 2
put space before char x of cd fld 1
set textSize of char x of cd fld 1 to cd fld 2
end repeat
end if
end mouseUp
Not sure this will help, but...
