Hi guys,

I am creating a dual column autolayout for a web page, and it works exactly as expected - until the text in the objects start to meet after switching to a vertical layout via the wrap feature.

From here the text overlaps rather than expanding the frames.

Please see attached screen recording to understand what I mean, and I’m sure it’ll be a straightforward user error somewhere 🙂

Thanks very much for any help here 🙂

That fixed it! I really appreciate your help, thanks again 🙂

It absolutely is! I think I’d thought I’d checked that parameter multiple times, and so must’ve overlooked it. Brilliant lesson in thorough investigation 🙂

You can investigate as thoroughly as you like!

It still happens. 🤬

A second set of eyes is far underrated.

I especially like when my boss finds the ONE thing that I overlooked.

Glad that fixed you!

Haha wise words!

I’ve just input the copy of the component into my home page frame and it no longer responds the same - it doesn’t wrap anymore and the content is cut off at the sides when resizing the home page frame which is very odd, so now I’m on the hunt for why this is now happening 🤔

EDIT: found it already the component copy needed to be set to ‘fill’ width - and now it behaves as it should, brilliant 🙂

Nicely done!

Figma makes the post have to be 20 characters. Dumb. 🙄
