Hi,

So in my program users can edit the text of a field, and we have it set up so that the field automatically resizes according to the text that is typed into it. The problem is that, often, when the spacebar is hit, it just jumps down to the next line. We want it to be able to put multiple words on each line.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks,

Laurel

Hi Laurel,

did you check "Don't wrap" for that field?

Well that is a very handy thing that I did not know about...thanks! It presents another problem, though. We want there to be a character limit (so once we get to a formattedwidth of 100, have it go onto the next line). With this property it seems we can't do that. Is there a way to use both of these?

Ah, nevermind. I think I figured it out. Thanks so much
