Just making sure you select the text tool to resize the text box works perfectly. It's just getting used to it. :)
I'm missing something here - like how you squashed the text. Neither the Selector Too nor the Text Tool will squash text. So how exactly did you do this?
Paul there is no 'convert to editable shapes' in Web Designer.
Using the select tool resizes the text as well as the text box whereas using just the text tool to resize resizes the text box only.
OK now I'm confused, I actually never noticed this before either, so yes Paul - the text area acts just as the way you asked for :o

Was this something you started in Xara Xtreme? Because you can squash the text in Xtreme, copy it to the clipboard and paste into WD as squashed but editable text.
Maybe you are editing a .xar which you started in Xtreme?
.web file attached to demonstrate
I just installed WD and was unable to squish text out of proportion and it all behaved nicely. Good job Charles. very impressive (who stole all my tools though?!).
I've never used Xtreme (which is why I keep asking questions about the tools you guys are probably used to :)) Here's a grab of what I meant. Resizing the text box using the select tool also resizes the text, which I didn't want. But now all is well. :)

Yes that's correct for point resizing, but I cannot cannot squash the text (deform) like you have in your original file at the start of the thread. How did you deform Arial like this in Web Designer?
I have been trying but cannot squash it.... :confused:
