Kingme Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Is it possible to have a field auto-shrink (reduce to fit) text to fit the allocated text box? The container field does this with images, but I haven't seen a way to do this with text fields.
Lee Smith Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Not the way you have described. By the way, when you have a Container field apply Shrink, Expand, etc to your Container field, it applies the same process to all images placed into that field.
-Queue- Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Are you referring to the Format -> Sliding/Printing options?
Kingme Posted June 23, 2005 Author Posted June 23, 2005 Nope.. I think Sliding only reduces the white space. I have a text box that has a specific size and area in the layout, and that size and spot cannot move (to keep it all aligned exactly) So I want the text to shrink the "font size" so the Text in that box fits. It's similar to Excel's "auto-shrink to fit" format of a cell.
Ender Posted June 23, 2005 Posted June 23, 2005 Sorry, there's way to do this in FM5/6, and no easy way to do this in FM7.
Kingme Posted June 23, 2005 Author Posted June 23, 2005 Thanks for the info.. I was hoping that the "FieldBounds" function could be of some help. Thanks
