Paragraph Text Not Wrapping

Hi. As ridiculous as I feel posting this because it is something so simple, I can't find the solution online, and according to the manual this functionality should be default. I created a paragraph text box, and I want the text to wrap within the box. However, the text stays on one line, and disappears after the limit of the box. Pressing enter for a new line doesn't work either (also with the point text), but I shouldn't have to do that as I am used to in older versions of Photoshop. I'm still adjusting to CS4... what am I missing!?
Thanks.

Check your leading. Set it to "Auto".
Make sure the "No Break" item is NOT checked in the Character menu flyout menu.

Text not wrapping on Data Review Screen

We are having an issue with text not wrapping on a screen, this has happened on the interview screens as well as the data review. Has anyone had this problem before? And how to fix it?
Thank you,

This will be a CSS issue which can be addressed by modifying main.vm.css. I don't know much about CSS, but when I had this issue with the data review screen for a custom look and feel I was working on, I was able to resolve it by specifying a data-review-item width which was smaller than the width of my banner graphic.
In my example, my banner graphic was 960px in width, and I added "width: 820px;" for data-review-item in main.vm.css:
.data-review-item {
clear: both;
width: 820px;
}If you have a CSS person around, get them to take a look at main.vm.css and I expect they'll be able to work out the right fix for your specific situation.
Cheers,
Jasmine

Text Not Wrapping

When I compile WinHelp2000 using Robohelp for Word X5 all of
the topics from 2 of the 7 documents are displaying the text across
the screen and not wrapping to fit the window. The topics from the
other 5 documents all display correctly.

In RoboHelp 5, I found that selecting all the text in the
original Word file and then going to Format / Paragraph and
unchecking the Keep Lines Together box seems to allow the lines to
wrap when compiled and run in RH. You may also have to unselect the
Keep With Next box. As always, make backups of the original files
first before trying this first. (Always a good thing to do.)

Text Not Wrapping Properly

On the left the text wraps correctly. I save that black
disc (with transparency). When I place it the text only
wraps around the bounding box.

Suggestions welcome thanks.

You are correct in CS 3 if you export and import it as a .psd and apply the wrap it will work, If asa tiff it will wrap around the bounding Box since transparent tiffs are not supported in AI.
If you bring the art in as an ai file and you saved it with the text wrap still live than it will have a clipping and will be grouped removing the clipping and ungrouping and then applying the text wrap should do it. I do not know if this works in AI CS 2.
PNG will work but jpeg and bitmap will not.
CAD export and import work as well.

Photoshop CS5.1 text not wrapping

I am using photoshop cs5.1 ( 12.1 x64 ) and have a multi-layered psd I am working with. I am trying to add a simple text block and for the life of me the text won't wrap inside my textbox? I have tried this two different ways. I have selected the text tool, and then clicked and dragged on the workspace to draw out my textbox. Doing that won't allow me to insert my text? The other way was to simply create the layer, then click the text tool and then go to the workspace and begin to type. When I do this the text won't wrap even though I thought I selected that. Also, when I hit enter (return), the text for the next line goes to the very bottom of the text area where I can't even see it?
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Mike

I have attached a pic. Using method #1 dragging the text tool cusror to create my text box I am able to add text now. I was mistaken when I created the box and then clicked my mouse again. This time I simply created the text box and then typed (the cursor was top center justified in the box. BUT, still, when I type, the text won't wrap and if I hit enter, you are not taken to the next line.
I think what is happening is the text is beginning on the top of the box and when I hit enter for a new line it goes to the bottom of the box?
So, here is my text box and I was able to add that text you see but you don't see the other text that continues "somewhere"
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Substep text not wrapping correctly

TCS3 in XP
I know you're not supposed to have more than one line of text in a substep, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. However, the second line of the substep is not indenting to the same level as the first line. Instead, it is wrapping to the level of the substep letter.
I thought selecting Convert to Autonumber to HTML List on the Conversion Settings dialog box was supposed to take care of this problem.
Here is the CSS:
P.substep {
font-family: Tahoma;
font-size: 11pt;
margin-left: 0pt;
margin-top: 0pt;
list-style-type: lower-alpha;
text-indent: 17pt;
margin-bottom: 6pt;
LI.p-substep {
font-family: Tahoma;
font-size: 11pt;
list-style-type: lower-alpha;
list-style-position: outside;
Probably some redundancy here. If so, let me know what is safe to delete.
Thanks in advance for your help.

William,
Thanks so much for the recommendations. I've bookmarked the W3Schools and the O'Reilly site.
Have a great day! You certainly made mine.

Table title text not wrapping on 2nd page after inserting variable

When I add the variable (continued) to a table title, it increased the length of the sentence on the second page. The text doesn't wrap, it just gets cut off. Any suggestions?

Unless someone else has found some magic trick... You are kind of stuck here: Either keep your table heading short enough to have room for the continuation variable, or make sure the text flows into the second line all the time.
It is apparently so that a repeated table heading has the same geometry as the original, first heading. [I don’t like it, but I kind of understand that limitation.]

Paragraph stops word-wrapping in Firefox

I am having the toughest time with an iWeb '08 website and text formatting.
In Safari, and IE, the page looks great. In Firefox 2.0.0.12 on both OSX and Windows XP, the paragraph text stops wrapping down the page.
http://www.cleanupthemud.org/cutm/10Million_DollarRebate.html
I have scoured Google, and endless forums in a quest for the reason why this is occurring.
Does anyone have any ideas?

I can't find anything different between the pages. I have looked on every tab of the inspector, and can't find anything different.
They don't appear to be different much, even when look at source code. But the CSS files said something else.
Your good page uses text box with elements class "paragraph_style", it's clearly in NoLimitedDistrict.css file.
Your bad page has text box also with elements class "paragraph_style", but they are wrapped inside an element with class "paragraph Free_Form", you can see it in 10Million_DollarRebate.css file.
I think FF didn't apply the css to the inner elements.
You will have to play around with this problem, try adding a text box in the bad page, copy+paste text from the bad text box to the newly added text box, apply font+style to it,
Leave the bad text box as is, don't delete it yet; publish to a folder and have a look. If the new text box works then you can delete the bad one.
BTW, the text in your good is text, if you can select partial of the text then it is text.

Text wrap for a paragraph: How to define the width of a Text box / active text area? I simply need a longish text to wrap within the frame!

Hello, I've been searching for a good while in the forums now, but have found no solution or real mention of the problem – I hope some of you can help.
I want to very simply layout a text between scenes, a slightly longer text that wraps within the frame margins. Here's an example of how I want it to look:
Now, I couldn't for the life of me get the Custom Text to behave like that, as there are no parameters to set for the width of the text area. The Text Size, yes, along with the Tracking, Baseline and all that, but the width of the text box, no. The above was created by customizing one of the other Text Generator presets that happened to be left aligned.
However, this preset has a fade in/fade out transition, which I do not want. There's no way to remove this transition as it seems integrated into the Text Generator (meaning they are not really presets, but separate kinds of Text objects? Very silly.)
So I am asking you: Is there any way to get the Custom Text generator to behave like that? Just a text paragraph as above. Below you'll see all I can manage with the diffferent Custom Text parameters. Any kind of repositioning and resizing of the text just changes the position and size of the frame – but the actual text items are just cropped off where they extend out of that frame. Apparently the bounding box for the text is just some default length, and I can't find any way to adjust the width. See below my different attempts.
The same text pasted into a Custom Text generator clearly extends outside the frame:
Here Transform just moves – or resizes – the video frame that the Text Box exists inside:
The Crop gives similar results, and of course Distort doesn't get me closer to what I need, either. There should be simply a Text Box Width parameter to set somewhere, but if it exists they have hidden it very well. How do you do it?
Thanks for any help, this is a silly problem, but one of now many trivial problems that amount to me growing quite dissatisfied with FCPX. Hopefully I've just overlooked something.
All the best,
Thomas

Thomas...same kind of crap here.
I used Custom Text - entered a sentence, hit return, entered another.
Set to 72 pt.
The default alignment is centred - I want left aligned text...the text start point stays at the centre of frame and the sentence runs off the edge of the bounding box.
There is no settings in the Text or Title inspector dialog to correct that!
Using Transform will not sort it!

Text will not wrap around a photo in indesign cs3?

we have tried EVERYTHING. we use adobe indesign for our school newspaper and for the past 3 days we have been trying to get one of the articles (text) to wrap around a photo.
the photo is a simple rectangle shape. for all of the other pages, the text wraps around photos perfectly fine. but for some reason on this one page it will not wrap around any picture at all.
of course "text wrap" is selected for the photo and we also tried going to the text frame options and unchecked ignore text wrap. that still didn't work.
we tried putting it on "detect edges" and that also did not work. ):
please please please if you have any suggestions, add them!!! we really need to fix this issue because this page needs these pictures!

I just encountered the same problem, the text did not wrap around the image whatever i did. I found the solution on my problem, that i had an imagebox underneath the image, which i was not aware of. I discovered it when i deleted first the textframes and the image. After i deleted the second imagebox the text wrapped around the image as i wanted it!

Text in buttons not wrapping in Reader 7

Hi there,
Our client requires the forms we have developed to run in Reader 7 (controlled environment) but I have noticed that the buttons with longer text strings do not wrap as observed in Reader 9.
The xml for the button in question is:
            <caption>
               <font typeface="Myriad Pro"/>
               <para hAlign="center" vAlign="middle"/>
               <value>
                  <text>Save and Back to Summary</text>
               </value>
            </caption>
Is there any way I can adapt this so that the test wraps in Reader 7?
Many thanks,
Kieran

That was a limitation of the text engine in Reader 7 ....I do not know of a way around it.

Am new at pages and cannot figure out how to insert a bullet where I want it in the text, not at the beginning of the paragraph. Word was much easier for me

Am new at this forum and also at pages and can't figure out how to insert a bullet where I want it in the text, not at the beginning of the paragraph. I found word much easier to use. Please help. Trying to do a resume.

On a US keyboard it is Option + 8 (above the letters). •

Edit_field - is it possible to force text to not wrap?

Doc excerpts:
from View attributes LrView text properties:
width_in_chars : (Read-Only) Calculates the minimum width using this as the number of m characters that should fit. Considered together with width_in_digits. If height_in_lines is set to -1, and width or width_in_digits or width_in_chars is specified, text wraps. (number, default: 15)
and from View attributes LrView edit view properties
wraps : (Read-Only)
True to wrap text. Mac only. (Boolean, default: true)
(note: read-only means you can't change it after it gets set (not bindable), but plugin does set it's value)
Question is: is it possible to *not* wrap text in an edit_field, in Windows? (so far all attempts have resulted in wrapped text). I mean, ultimately it would need to not wrap in Mac too, but one step at a time...
R

You don't have direct control of the line spacing (leading) for a text field created in Acrobat. You can change the font size, but this often means using a larger size than looks good. You can also simply set the background color of the field to white, which will cover up the lines. This is the approach taken with the following demo: https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=AG6oZ3bi3DYHokxDPeWN7A
When no text is in the field the lines are visible so they can be used if the form is printed and filled by hand.

Plain text signature not wrapping in Apple Mail 8

Hello all,
I just upgraded to Yosemite and am experiencing a problem with Mail 8. I have a text based signature that I used on my business email. I created it in text edit, converted to plain text and then pasted into the Signatures pane. I have the option selected of: "Always match my default message font".
When creating a new message, or responding to a message, the signature content is not wrapping, causing the window to be about 6 times wider than my screen width. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?
Thanks,

UPDATE: Deleting and recreating the signature solved the problem.
