I can't believe I can't get this simple task to work.

I am trying to copy text into a text box that was created with the text tool. I have it set to dynamic text, and font and color, multiline and selectable.

Everytime I put the text into the box the box becomes large.
I want to be able to scroll the text.


I have done this before and no problems but now its not working..


what is the problem
