SUMMARY
Text editing feature is very limited and not user-friendly
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a title layer
2. Add a text container and start adding long text inside
OBSERVED RESULT
When a text is getting too long - it goes beyond screen. It is now not possible
to create a bounding rectangle that defines a text block size and automatically
wraps the text if it goes beyond the block. Instead, user has to manually split
it to lines with "Enter" key. The additional problem of doing that quickly is:
1) a cursor position is not visible (having a blinking 'typewriter' cursor
would be good); 2) if the text is - let's say - aligned to the left, after
adding more text the text block is moved to the left and user has to adjust
text block position each time manually; having a bounding container would
resolve such problem. Bounding container maybe have two options: 1) autoresize
the size to fit the text; 2) wrap the text if it goes beyond the container
margins;
EXPECTED RESULT
