# Text Elements
The rendered content of `Text` element is given by the `characters` property.
The rendered content of a `Text` element is given by the `characters` property.
To change the size of the text, change the `fontSize` property; applying `resize()` does NOT change the font size,
it only changes the formal bounding box; if the text does not fit it, it will overflow.
it only changes the formal bounding box; if the text does not fit it, it will overflow; use `textBounds` for the actual bounding box of the rendered text.
The bounding box is sized automatically as long as the `growType` property is set to "auto-width" or "auto-height".
`resize` always sets `growType` to "fixed", so ALWAYS set it back to "auto-*" if you want automatic sizing - otherwise the bounding box will be meaningless, with the text overflowing!
`resize` always sets `growType` to "fixed", so ALWAYS set it back to "auto-*" if you want automatic sizing!
The auto-sizing is not immediate; sleep for a short time (100ms) if you want to read the updated bounding box.
