Question

Text doesn't look aligned properly using autolayout with component properties

I noticed a really strange visual appearance behaviour that happens using component properties with autolayout and text styles inside.

I’m trying to achieve a single input field that could be adapted in different situations. Everything is great, aside the fact that when I close and open again the same file, texts appear not aligned vertically anymore. Double-clicking the instance to edit it brings all the elements to the correct position.

Example as I open the file

Example as I double-click the instance

Somebody is experiencing the same issue?

Hey Keenan, could you please try the steps tank666 suggested?

Follow these steps:

  1. Select a layer using that font.
  2. Open the menu or open the quick actions menu.
  3. Use Select all with same font to select all text layers with that font.
  4. Use Recompute Text Layout in Selection to reset text to the correct formatting.

or “Regenerate All Instances (Slow)” commands by typing them into Quick actions.

Please let me know if that helps.
