Text Overflow Fit Multiline Issue

When adding line-break characters to a Text Run that has Overflow set to Fit, the Text is scaled as if it was on a single line.

I would expect the text to fit with regards to line-break as well, so scaling to fit the widest line on the horizontal axis.

This seems like an unintentional issue that we cannot work around as users with using dynamic (on runtime set) Text Runs with variable copy.

I'm having a hard time replicating this issue. Would you mind exporting and sharing your .rev file?

Hi Lance, here you go!

Thank you for looking into this!

Hey GuZ, the reason for that behavior is that "Fit" by default respects the original baseline. This is useful if you want multiple text boxes to look baseline aligned even if their font sizes are different.
We've added on the latest build a new option "Maintain Baseline on Fit" that can be toggled off.
Setting it to off, will optimize the text size to fit within the text box.

Amazing, thank you so much!! :)
FYI - I had to toggle it ON to make it behave the way I want
