Changing font size in a callout or text box should resize the callout or textbox logically

Derek Hartzell

When you change the font size, a callout or text box should resize to a logical size.

As an example:

I have the word 'testing' in a text box with 10 point Helvetica font. The fitted size is 0.4369" width x 0.1667" height. When I change it to 30 point Helvetica in properties, it resizes to a box of 0.3753" width and 1.8819" height. This places the letters in this form:
te

This doesn't seem logical. It isn't proportional to the original box size. It is even narrower in absolute dimensions for a larger font. This autosize is automatically unusable. Why can't it be proportional to the original text box size?

It would be great to see them fix this issue. When making text smaller than the original the box should auto size accordingly.

I agree with your premise. I've contemplated posting about it before, but just keep dealing with it. Would be great for the text boxes (and callouts) to dynamically re-size when changing text (character, size, spacing) without having to manually re-size after each edit.

Yes Please and Thank you!
It would reduce the calluses on my finger from the reduction in extra clicks
