How Do I Adjust a Text Box in Canva?

Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 8:08 pm

When you are creating a design in Canva, you may want to adjust the size or shape of a text box. This can be done by accessing the “Text” tool in the left-hand toolbar and then clicking on the text box you wish to adjust.

Once you have clicked on the text box, you will see a number of options appear in a toolbar above it. From here, you can click on the “Edit” button to change the size or shape of the text box.

PRO TIP: The following note is a warning for anyone considering adjusting a text box in Canva:

Canva is a great tool for creating beautiful designs, but it can be tricky to adjust text boxes once they’ve been placed. If you’re not careful, you could end up with wonky-looking text or worse – your text could disappear entirely!

So, before you make any adjustments to a text box in Canva, be sure to save your work and create a backup copy, just in case. And if you’re not confident in your ability to make the adjustment, it’s probably best to leave it to the professionals.

If you want to change the size of the text box, you can do so by clicking and dragging on the corner handles. To change the shape of the text box, you can click on the “Edit” button and then select one of the options from the drop-down menu.

Once you have made your changes, you can click on the “Save” button to save them.
