    Thank you. This is another work around. Would be great if MS would fix the problem let us pick font size for text within the post it note.

    If you increase the text box using the corner, it increases font size, then you can go back and decrease the text box using the edges (not corners) and it keeps the same font size so you can fit it to your area.

    Thanks for pointing this out. It works - somewhat, but is really a semi useful workaround. What many of us would like is for MS to fix the problem so we can click on the post-it note and use the "start typing" feature and have option to size the text within the post it note, and have the post it note automatically resize when text is adjusted.

    Yes, we can add a text box and then make that text box larger to increase the size of the text, but that is extra steps and more importantly, increasing the size of the text box doesn't automatically resize the post-it note.

    HI Folks,

    I finally cracked the issue. We can insert a new text box inside the shape (for example: a rectangle). The text box when clicked, triggers a selection box, we can pull the corners of that selection box and drag it to increase the font size.

    Agree 100%. It's a key problem with a simple answer. This needs to be fixed. I was told to us Teams whiteboard to facilitate a large working session, because that was the tool the company had in-house (not Miro). The exercise with leaders was not as effective and efficient as I would have liked, and the experience for the leaders was not as positive as it could have been because of the tool limitations.
