Ah OK. Thanks for the confirmation, good to know I'm not missing something obvious.<br><br>On Tuesday, October 16, 2012 3:43:16 PM UTC-4, McFarlane, David wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0;margin-left: 0.8ex;border-left: 1px #ccc solid;padding-left: 1ex;">Correct on all counts. TextDisplay applies the same text
<br>characteristics to all the text, no way around that. And as you
<br>said, one could work around this to some extent with a Slide,
<br>although that would not automatically adjust for text that may appear

<br>(see that topic in the E-Basic Help facility), I did that for one project.
