Textbox Text is Truncated
Howdy!
This one's really got me confused. I can recreate this in Win/Office 2000 and in Win/Office XP... 1) Create a new workbook 2) From the Control Toolbox toolbar, create a new textbox on a worksheet...say, about 5" by 5" big. 3) In the properties inspector, change the font to Verdana size 10(or some crazy font other than the default...but even the default does it sometimes) and set the textbox to support multilines 4) Outside of design mode, populate the text box with random lines of text that suits your wit. Fill the textbox up and make sure that your sentences need to wrap to the next line...and don't conveniently end at the right edge of the textbox. 5) Look at the textbox and notice how nice everything looks. 6) Perform a print preview...DOES YOUR TEXTBOX TRUNCATE THE LAST 3 OR SO CHARACTERS OF EVERY WRAPPING LINE? If your textbox doesn't cut off the last couple of characters, WHY DOES MINE? How can I prevent my characters from being cut off? Is there a way to set the margin widths within a textbox... especially the right margin width? Any ideas?!? |
