textbox moves up when dialogue gets longer?
I'm just working on some creative commons textboxes and I just came across something I haven't seen before.
When the dialogue text is only one line long, the textbox is where it should be. But if you make the dialogue any longer, it actually moves the textbox up. Is there some way I can prevent this from happening? I haven't had this problem before.

Re: textbox moves up when dialogue gets longer?
i guess setting yminimum and ymaximum should help^^
Re: textbox moves up when dialogue gets longer?
xysize + padding usually works... but yeah, ymin/max should solve the issue.
Re: textbox moves up when dialogue gets longer?
I believe you can alos mess with the alignment of the textbox, so that if it does grow in size it would either grow upwards or downwards.

Re: textbox moves up when dialogue gets longer?
I did mess quite a bit with the x/yminimums and maximums and it didn't seem to do anything to help. padding should be perfect. It's weird.. Idk. I was just going to upload some coding guidelines with the textbox since it comes with quick menu images but oh well haha it's not a huge deal. Just never had this problem before.
