Texdawg I have this same problem on both of my computers. I load my picture and click on text so the overlay shows up. For some reason I can't resize the box for the text. As soon at I shrink or expand the box it snaps back into a fixed sized. I'm using the latest version 7.02 of Photopad. I have to keep shrinking my font size to prevent the text from wrapping down to a second or more lines. I think I should be able to make the width of the text box as wide as the width of the photo.
DannR Try to Uninstall the program, then restart your machine. After this reinstall again the program from the next link: http://www.oldversiondownload.com/oldversions/photopad-6-70-2020-12-16.exe This is the previous version, check if you get the same situation here. you can report the issue to the Developer Team here: https://www.nch.com.au/software/bug.html
Texdawg DannR, This older version works perfectly. Apparently v7.02 has a problem. Where do I need to proceed from here?
[deleted] Hi, this issue has been reported to our developers, hopefully we will have a fix on the next release of the program.
