Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: Intel I am using PPT MAC2008 and my text boxes stopped behaving as they used to, the text never wraps, and the size of the box is not related to the text typed. How do I get this behaviour back to normal???

Hello,

I am using PPT MAC2008 and my text boxes stopped behaving as they used to, the
text never wraps, and the size of the box is not related to the text typed.
How do I get this behaviour back to normal???

Double-click on the text box, and in the Text Box
category you'll find the options "Resize shape to fit text"
and "Wrap text in shape". You'll also find the wrap text
option in the Formatting Palette.

How are you drawing your text boxes?
Are you double-clicking on the slide to add text,
are you typing text into a placeholder, or
are you using the Text Box tool on the Drawing
or Standard toolbar to draw your own text boxes?
The wrapping and resizing behavior will change
depending on how you do this. Try each method and
you'll see the difference.

Jeff
