Rounded rectangle caption shapes - corner radius
Hi all,
Client has asked us to change rectangle caption shapes to rounded corner rectangles.
When I do this, either by using the Format>Change Shape feature, or by creating a new caption shape... I CANNOT ADJUST the CORNER RADIUS of the captions (callouts).
The strange thing is, if my associate does the same thing - his corner radius is TOO BIG.
When I do this, my corner radius is TOO SMALL.
We'd like to make the corner radius JUST RIGHT.
I hope you can appreciate the Goldilocks nature of our problem.
How can we adjust this default corner radius on rounded rectangle caption shapes? Something must affect this setting because of the difference in default between myself and my associate.
Try replicating yourself - can you adjust rounded corner radius on rounded rectangle caption shapes? If not - what size are yours?
Please help before the 3 bears get home and eat me.
I keep trying to reply to say thank you, but it keeps disappearing!
Hello Rory, you are most welcome!

Hi Diarmaid!
I love your zeal for this feature and appreciate the valuable context you outlined. Thanks for taking the time to send in a Feature Request, too!
We are tracking requests to lock and set the corner radius and will take all of this into consideration as we prioritize and plan for future enhancements. Though this one isn't on the immediate roadmap, I'll keep documenting the impact and update you if we make a change that helps.
As always, thank you for contributing!
I've spent hours fine tuning the corner radius on hundreds of differently sized text boxes by dragging that tiny yellow handle by a pixel left or right. Even zoomed in at 400% it's a really horrible job and I can feel my eyes starting to get jittery!
Please give us a corner radius value we can hard code, and that doesn't change when the box resizes.
I've come to this now 6 year old thread wondering how to change the curve radius only to find out that you still can't.
