I have a title box that is say 100 pixels wide.

It you have say a 50 character word that carries on past the end of the defined area you will get ... which is no great but ok

If you have the same 50 character field and lots of words they will all come out on the slide going down the page Even worse!

Is there any way to constrain the text to its defined area? Any attribute that can be applied in the xaml file?

The attached file probably gives a feel for why this is important...
i have an app i am writing that take data from another application to inject it in to the fields via the vMix API

Thanks

Keith

I'd try using the XAML native TextBlock rather than vMix' TextBlockDesign, seems to get what you are looking for.

When I try and open the XAML I get an error :

The tag 'TextBlock' does not exist in XML namespace
I am running version 15.0.0.74

Thanks
