How can I wrap text within a shape so it doesn't overflow the shape borders?

NVM I realized it doesn't support single word wrap

-----------------------------

Could you help me with my case? I typed text in shape but it automatically overflow

Hi @xuewei as Micah mentioned above the reason the text is overflowing beyond the shape is because you have your text set to a specific text size. If you'd like the single word to stay within the shape you can select the text change the size setting to "auto" and it will automatically adjust the size to stay within your shape. 

I hope this helps! Let us know if you have additional questions.

Hello Addie,

This doesn’t make sense because on auto the text would be too small to read.

What we are asking is to keep the text size fixed and wrap the text inside the shape.

Thanks,

Vincent

Hi Vince! Thanks for the response. With text inside the shape, you can either choose the size that works for your preferences, or choose the auto setting. As stated above, when selecting auto, the text will automatically shrink to the appropriate size in order to stay within the shape.

I want to be able to arch the text so it can work in a circle chart, is there a way to do this?

While also looking for a solution for this issue, just wanted to leave my quick resolution.

For a lot of situations we just need to see part of the text so we have a reference, and I would expect an ability to just clip the text outside the cell space.

Added features would be:

1. Tooltip or similar on hover available for checking the full content.
2. Auto text ellipsis of right or left end, or even center so we could see both start and end of text but still all inside the cell space.
