Ability to "auto-layout" two text nodes as one block of text, flowing continuously?

This cannot currently be achieved with auto layout. But you can have one text object instead of two, in which you can set the font weight you want for a certain range of text.

This is more important now with Variables since variable text doesn’t account for multiple font styles (font weights, italics, etc.) within the same Text block when applied to a Text block.

Thus, you’d need two (or more) consecutive Text components with single styles. For example, I want to display “@Mention Name Here is the text of the message”. When I apply a text variable to this, the bold style is being overridden and it all appears as normal weight font.

I ran into this problem when building with Variables and cannot find a solution.

I think I found a solution to this is by using Auto Layout and breaking down the sentence into blocks of words.

To achieve the effect of “auto-layout” for two text nodes flowing as one continuous block of text, you can group the text nodes within an auto-layout frame. This allows the text to adjust dynamically based on content, maintaining a seamless flow. Adjust padding and spacing to control the visual appearance and ensure continuity between the two nodes.
