I haven't used Illustrator for a few months (after like 25 years of using) and suddenly something changed.

When I try to scale a Paragraph type part, it's aligning my text automatically and actually non-stop the way i would NOT like to align it. Vertically and Horizontally.

It looks like an Ai way of aligning, but I definitely want this to control this on my own.

ANyone a solution?

ai. duh... stupid me. check!

Stef, the difference between the two paragraph settings is that the reflow one is set to Adobe Every-Line Composer and the static one to Adobe Single-Line Composer.

They should not reflow when just moved.

I can see it reflowing when moving, but as soon as I stop moving it shows the original.

Maybe you want Type > Convert To Point Type?

I know the difference between this. But still: In the video you can see the text is aligning by it'self eventhoough the width does not change in those 0,5 second.
