The text is aligned in the middle, but as shown in the text pane, the name still has “going” in it.
I think it has something to do with the length of the last line. I tried replacing the word “going” with numbers, and when I hit 123456 it expanded to show it via the menu or shortcut or manual expansion. Here’s the screenshot:
The same thing happens if it’s set to expand vertically in Document Settings.
Could someone see if they can replicate it? If so, I’ll send off the email.
I don’t see the problem in the examples. Each image has different expansion dimensions (HxW).
FWIW, as a long-time user I find it is usually the case that in these cases Tinderbox attempts to do the best it can for the most cases, rather than perfectly for each case. Tweaking and adjusting is frequently needed and expected.
I wonder if, in the base examples above, Tinderbox finds it can’t set the word “going” in the available width, even if it has the entire line to work with.
But that’s speculation. This sort of issue is fortunately easy to report.
Notice the discrepancy.
Copy the offending note to a new document.
Adjust the new document scale and other settings to match the old document.
Verify that the problem still occurs.
Send us the new document, with a note about the issue.
Both expand horizontal/expand vertical and outline layout code are unpleasantly intricate and, in consequence, finicky. There’s a tension as well between keeping this code simple and consistent, which is nice, and making it run really fast, which is also nice. Pinch zoom, for example, was recently raised as a performance concern, and caching involved there might be the culprit.
Workaround tip for this problem: often, clicking once on the current tab will help. This forces a fresh layout and clears some caches.
So in a nutshell, “12345” doesn’t show on the map using the above steps, whereas “123456” does. Similar things happen when I use “real” notes, sometimes the last word will be visible, other times it won’t be.
Hope that’s clearer!
(Using Tb Version 8.2.3 (b426) and Catalina 10.15.2. Forgot to say that earlier)
I’ve kept the width the same in the notes and only altered the height. It’s just the screenshot areas that have changed.
Yup, know what you mean – the problem is that if I keep the width the same, there’s no way I can seem to get the last word to show on the map by manually altering the height only. I can see the missing word if I drag from the corner, but that alters the width as well, and messes up the way the diagrams I am trying to do work (where I want the height to vary but the width to stay the same).
