Adustable text box in a tag

Hello 

I have created a tag with has a label for description for walls. 

When I place the tag in my plan views, I do not have the ability to adjust the text box so I can condense the text appropriately. 

How can I add this adjustability?

This is my situation at the moment, I can not adjust this text:

And this is what I would like to be able to do, adjust it appropriately:

Thank you very much

Autodesk Revit does not allow adjustments or the use of reference planes to control the box.

Okay so there is no way to adjust the text box in a tag?

For example, I do not have the two nodes at the end of the text boxes to adjust them.. I would really like to have them

Revit will not allow that in a tag.  The closest you can come to that would be to set up multiple labels in your tag, with a range of widths, each tied to a Yes/No parameter for visibility.  Then create a Type for each label, and only turn on the visibility of a label in its type.

 

In the project, you can select the type with the width closest to what you want.

@aidan_hawkinsRJNAQ :

this is only a discription for the wall so ,yes there is,you can use the multiline text as a parameter and use a variable like mine:
