Hello I am going bonkers trying to make my text fit nicely in decision diamonds. I'm having to go in and force line breaks rather than the shape growing sensibly round the text. Have I unset something by mistake? Thank you!
How do you fit text in decision diamond shape in Lucidchart?

Hi Lucy
Thanks for reaching out! Unfortunately, the decision shape does not automatically resize when text is added. Here are a few workarounds for this:
1. Add a text box to your desired size over the shape and group the objects together.
2. Adjust the text padding in your shape. You can do this by opening the Text Options menu (clicking on the the T) when you have your shape selected and then adjusting the padding.
We're always looking for ways to improve Lucidchart and your feedback is the best way for us to do that. If you'd like to potentially see the functionality that you're describing added to Lucidchart in the future please add your idea to the Product Feedback Space. Feel free to let me know if you have further questions!
