Text in shapes/sticky notes should auto–adjust dynamically

Claus · May 28, 2021, 11:10am

As a user I want the text to auto-adjust: in this way I can write sticky notes different in length (without breaking them in height).

Would be great if we could have sticky notes that their text autosized based on the content

so that text maximizes its size based on the sticky size
the sticky remains the same size independent of the text content
you do not have to manually keep changing the font size of a sticky so the text fits nicely in a rectangular sticky

I can choose between few text sizes. However, there is no option that my texts scale (neither manually, nor automatically).

Can you show an example of what you mean by that?

It’s about text sizes in FigJam. I can only choose between 4 semantic text categories, but I cannot scale the texts.

For instance, standard text size is fine if I am working with just few contents.

However, if my FigJam page is getting larger, I cannot read the texts.

Zoom in/out is not always an option, for example if you want to convey the big picture.

If possible, it would be great if we had the ability to select “adaptive” for the text size instead of just normal, heading, etc

This would allow stickies to have text that filles a bit better (please note the following image is from Figma / not Figjam, but its still illustrates the feature request.

Additionally, this feature would allow circle shapes to remain circular when writing larger blurbs and speed up the workflow

Or at least a size smaller? Or allow us to specify our own sizes or add to default sizes?

When typing text in a Miro sticky note, the text automatically resizes to fit the size of the sticky note. This would be a great feature for FigJam!

There is a quite a big difference in size between the text styles currently offered, which doesn’t always look great.

Would be great if we could also have standard sizes for stickies,
S - M - L … like miro has :disappear:

If text gets too long when I’m typing within a shape, some of the text gets hidden behind an ellipses. It’d be a great enhancement if the text would dynamically resize so the full text is visible in the shape. Right now I need to manually change the text size from 32px to 30, 28, 27px, etc. until it fits just right in the shape.
