Hi,
I've seen several postings here showing how to resize a shape to accommodate more text. My problem is just the opposite.
I have a shape that may need to accommodate a possibly large amount of text. Right now, even though the size of the shape is fixed, all the text is shown, "overflowing" the size of the containing shape. However, I do not want to show more text in the page than the original size of the text box. How do I restrict the amount of text shown to say 3 lines?
Of course, the expected behavior is that if I go to edit the text I should still be able to see/edit it all, but when I finish editing, only the first 3 lines should be shown.
I'm relatively new in Visio and thus I have the feeling that there's a simple solution to this but unfortunately it eludes me.
Many thanks in advance!
Alex
