    Default Re: expanding text in a box

    To move them as a single item, Do the text and box need to be soft grouped?

    Great tutorial! However I must be missing a step. The first line of text is white and every line after is grey and will not change color. If all the text is selected and changed to red (or any color) only the first line changes.

    SOLVED - Ah, Text Column = Text Line. Was drawing a text box.

    I usually don't bother with Soft-Grouping.

    Here, it is the line that controls the box, move the line and the box follows.

    Soft-Grouping is perfectly all right to use.
