If a text box in Figma set to auto-width unexpectedly breaks text into multiple lines, what is the most probable reason?
AThe text box is set to auto-height instead
BAuto-width is disabled in the text properties
CThe font size is too small to fit on one line
DThe text box has a fixed width constraint applied
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Identify auto-width behavior

    Auto-width text boxes expand horizontally to fit text on one line.

  2. Step 2: Check constraints

    If a fixed width constraint is applied, the box cannot grow horizontally, causing text to wrap.

  3. Final Answer:

    The text box has a fixed width constraint applied -> Option D

  4. Quick Check:

    Fixed width prevents horizontal growth [OK]
Quick Trick: Fixed width stops auto-width expansion [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Assuming font size causes wrapping
  • Confusing auto-width with auto-height
  • Thinking auto-width can override fixed constraints
