You can also adjust the font size, text alignment, font style (regular, bold, italic, etc), as well as the line height and kerning (space between letters).

### Word Warp

The Word Wrap settings will determine where your text will wrap to a new line if it is wider than the textbox.

Normal
Wraps text only at spaces between words. Long words stay intact and may overflow the container.

Break Word
Wraps at spaces, but if a word is too long to fit on one line, it will break to prevent overflow.

Break All
Allows line breaks between any characters, even in the middle of words. Ensures text always fits, but may reduce readability.
