Autofit options for Text Box #15

Closed Chouffy closed 2 years ago

Chouffy commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I would like to have an icon in Instrumenta to choose the Autofit for the selected shape(s) in order to save time.

Describe the solution you'd like This is how to access it manually:

  1. Right-click on a Shape
  2. Click Format Shape
  3. Go to Size & Properties tab (usually the 3rd option)
  4. Expand the Text Box section
  5. Select either
    • Do not Autofit
    • Shrink text on overflow
    • Resize shape to fit text

An elegant solution would be to have an icon in Instrumenta in the Text section, with the ability to select the 3 options mentioned in step 5.

Describe alternatives you've considered Manual selection, which is a bit not nice

Good idea! I would also use that, and today it's quite hidden in PPT. Will look into it.
