Text Box outlines are too small for larger text

When I need to use larger text, often to highlight something on the artboard, the text box that appears is much too small for the text.  This has been an issue for at least six months now.  And I can’t find any way to resize the textbox properly; the large text always sits outside of it.  It’s ugly, but it also makes the element difficult to manage and manipulate.  Any fixes?

Hi ​@Jessica_Fawley , Thanks for letting us know about this!

 

Just to confirm, you want text boxes to automatically change size when the text font gets larger, right?

If that's the case, you'll want to adjust the "Resizing" setting in the "Layout" panel on the right.

You can check out the details in the “Text resizing” section of the Adjust text dimensions and resizing.

Hopefully, that clears things up! Thanks again for reaching out.
