I increased the size of this text and now it is overset. I can't figure out how to make the text box grow, it only allows me to drag and distort the visible text.

I was able to drag the outermost anchorpoint to extend the line. Thanks!

For anyone stuck I did have to move this line before I was able to drag the anchor point..
