Question
This is probably a really easy question but i need to enlarge a text box - without enlarging the text - everytime I drag it out the gets larger as well. Thanks

Answer
Hi Chris,

If this is a text box (you clicked and drug out a box) then you can resize using the selection tool. If you just clicked once, you did not create a text box, and you cannot resize without increasing the text. If this is the case, click in this with the text tool, select all and copy and paste into a new box.

Thanks
