Microsoft whiteboard Unable to change font size on text box objects (using templates)

Question

Hi I am unable to change text size while using templates - it’s tiny!! I have option to nbold or underline but there is no place on bottom or floating toolbars that offers this - can anyone advise.

Answer 1

@IVAN This does not address the question of increasing the font size within the box. It only changes the box sise. The inherent issue people are trying to resolve here is the tiny text in a huge box. How do you increase the text size (as in any other MS application)?

Answer 2

I'm having the same issue. Pulling the corners only resizes the box. the text does not change size. There is no option in the text formatting tools to change the size or the alignment.

Answer 3

@microsoft support

How about an official status on this? Some HELP?

Answer 4

I've have spent similar painstaking time trying to figure this out. One thing I've discovered that I don't believe is talked about enough is the fact that if you use the 'Text' tool and create text, then the sizing of that object WILL adjust the size of the text.

So I think the workaround here is to add a text box and overlay it on an object, instead of having text in the object itself. You then have control over increasing/decreasing text size regardless of object size.

Frustrating to say the least

I have the same issue and find the workaround to be unsatisfactory compares to say Miro
