Text cut off in shapes

Hi, can someone tell me why my text in a shape is being cut off when I preview the project or publish? It's like the text expands, but doesn't wrap - just gets cut off. Thanks

    Could you post a screenshot? Please give some more details: is this a static text (no variables inserted) or a dynamic text, a normal or a responsive project, tested for SWF and/or HTML5 output in Preview or after publishing. Did you check the margins of the shape? Text will never flow in a shape (like it did for CP5 in its limited set of shapes) but is contained in a rectangular box within the shape.

    Hi, on further investigation, I have found that I can set margins for the smart shape ( I wasn't aware) so this has fixed the issue, thanks
