Currently, text fields feel extremely limited. If I need to type more than ‘x’ characters, the text does not wrap to the next line but instead runs off the page. This forces me to create multiple separate text boxes just to capture a single message. In some cases, I’ve had to make 10+ text boxes for what should be one continuous entry.

It would be much more user-friendly if text fields automatically wrapped text and allowed line breaks (e.g., pressing “Enter” to move to the next line). This seems like a straightforward improvement, and I believe many users run into the same issue. Adding this functionality would save significant time, improve readability, and make DocuSign far easier to use for longer entries

Hi ​@DillonSnethkamp,

Thank you for your valuable contribution to the Docusign Community! We greatly appreciate your Idea to help us improve our platform.

Upon reviewing your request, we found that resizing the text field can achieve the desired outcome. You can click and drag on any corner to resize the field 👉 About field resizing

If you do not see the option, this may be due to a backend setting that has not been activated, or potentially related to your subscription plan. A support agent can assist in determining whether this is the case or if it is indeed supported under your plan, so it would be advisable to create a support case for clarification👉 Open a case in the Docusign Support Center
