NunoF Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Hi Is there any easy way to automatically resize the frame (I think this is the correct name) to the text inside? I add a photo for better understanding. Basically when I select the text I get the blue square around the text that allows me to alter the text position, size etc. The problem is that I have a bunch of different layers with text that I would like to align but because the frame is not "fit" with the text, the auto align tool does not align the text properly. You can see the first text...the C is not aligned with the rest. I tried a lot of things to sort this out before posting this...but not not find a way to do it...

NunoF Posted June 29, 2022 Author Share Posted June 29, 2022 Answering my own question, I think I got it...by accident. So I aligned all text to the left (stupid me had some of them centered) and then instead of simply selecting the frame and trying to resize the frame with the mouse, I selected the transform W/H boxes and then scrolled with middle button until all text was inside the frame. I have no idea if there is a better way but this one seems to work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbasdf Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 You can also double-click the middle handle on the text box to shrink it to fit the text: If you hold CMD (on Mac, I think Ctrl on Windows) then the text box will shrink to the correct size, but will remain centred (vertically or horizontally as the case may be).
