Hi guys,
I have a trouble of the width of the bounding box of MTEXT.

I difined the width of the bounding box, for example "4", and then I inputed text inside of the bounding box. When text reach the boundary, it doesn't wraps to a new line, but go throught the boundary.

How could I make the width of the bounding box works? When the text reach the certain width, it will wraps to a new line. Thank you.

One thing I have noticed using MTEXT is that it will not word wrap until you include a space between words. If it is one single string of text it will continue on past the bounds that is set. Is this the case with what your typing? Is it just one single string of text or does it include a more complex set of text such as a note in paragraph form?

Hi Calvin,
Thanks for reply. It works when I include space in the text string.
