The Text Area Attributes provide crucial data for a Text Area Object.

• Text Area is simply the desired text.

• Word Wrap can be enabled and disabled. When it is enabled, the text fits within the confines of the Text Area. If disabled, the text will be in one line and may run off the Text Area, causing some text to not be visible. In this case, please adjust the dimensions of the Text Area.

• The Background Color is the color of the Text Area box which appears behind the text.

Code
