Hi, @MariaKatsanevas 

Thank you very much for your reply. In my tests it is not dynamic. When we change the font size, as you described, the textbox size doesn't change with it and we need to manually adjust it appropriately:

You can resize this text box in the Format column on the right when it is selected:

Have you tried removing the top padding on the text box formatting?

 

With default 5 px top padding:

With 0 px top padding:

Hi, @MariaKatsanevas 

You can remove the last bit of space by resizing the text box, as shown in the image below:

You can also try an alternative workaround by changing the background color of the text box to the background color or transparent color of your report, so that the last bit of space blends in with the background to achieve a similar effect:

When I do that it wont show the text. I think the issue is that the text box has been set in the theme to font size of 20. And when the font is at 20 it works fine. But when you make it smaller then it keeps the 20 font size height. I thought it would be dynamic.
