I try to fill a multi text field with some text. That text should be right-aligned.
That works fine, nearly perfect.
This complete whole field may be moved around (which is correct).
The trouble is, if I want to narrow it (make it smaller) from the right to the inside, it does not move off the right margin of the page, it sticks there. It only allows me, to move the text box as a whole, no sizing possible at all. Even if I grab (no, not by 'that equipment') the size handles, it always moves the whole box. The right handle sometimes does not do anything, neither re-sizing nor moving the box.
Page refresh does not help, except it moves the text to the right margin (correct).
Properties Resizing ist on 'Width only' (not Auto). The text has line breaks as shown (just before repaging).
Re-loading the project does not help.

Something there seems to be inconsistent.
I can live with that situation, but it's somehow strange, unusual.
If you need the source, just ask.

Hi,

Yes I would need a source or even better a link to the page online, with an indication of what element to look

I see.

These elements have a style "skin"or "preset"  applyed to them - you can see this in Styles->Style Presets on the right. This skin has width and height set to "auto" and "!important", thus blocking any size manipulations. you have 2 solutions:

 - Instead of changing size, change inner margins (padding).

 - Or, in Styles->Style Presets, click the small button with a pencil on the top to edit the preset, and uncheck "Important" on width and/or height
