I have set up on advanced text style line length to 150, but it's not wrapping up the text to a new line. If I use the selection tool set to single and select the text I don't see the edit handles. Using Microstation V8i SS10. Thank you!
Do you have the handles disabled in the Selection Settings Dialog?
Microstation CONNECT - 10.17.2.61
ORD - 2021 R1 10.10.1.3
ORD 2022 R1.1 - 10.11.3.2
ORD 2022 R3 - 10.12.2.4
Microstation v8i SS 10 - 08.11.09.919
Power InRoads v8i - 08.11.09.615
ProjectWise - 10.0.3.453
I enable the handles, but still line length of 150 format is not working.
Perhaps no help, but I use the line length feature all the time. But I do it a bit different. I edit the text, go to the key-in window and type LL=150. Works fine. If you can get that to work, you should be able to match it to your Test Style.

I was able to get the line length set while I was experimenting early with the keyin, but setting it in a text style didn't seem to work. I think the OP is more concerned with accessing the edit handles when the text element is selected
I have created a Text Style with Line Length 150 and placed text in the dgn using this style, the text wrap was as expected. (Also tested with the TextStyle coming from a dgnlib)
As mwlong mentions the problem experienced would appear to be with the edit handle display. It may be a simple case of selecting 'Disable Handles' in the Element Selection dialog. But LuciliaMiti can confirm.

None of these options worked for me. I don't know where to set the method to Word Wrap.

Can you see a Word-Wrap icon in the text editor dialog?

No, it isn't showing on mine, and my Workspace Preferences show Text Editor Style Word Processor. On Microstation Connect Edition it does work, but this version is not compatible with NYSDOT I work with, and on SS4 version I was using before, it worked.
What version are you using? You state CONNECT is not compatible with NYSDOT and you were using SS4 when it worked. So are you using SS10?
I don't have SS10, but in v8i you select the place text tool and switch the placement method to Word Wrap
Yes, I'm using V8i (SELECTseries 10) Version 08.11.09.919, and I selected Method: Word Wrap, and it didn't work.
Thank you!
Can you be more specific about "It didn't work"? What is not working? What are you expecting to work that not working?
When Place a Text, it's set up in Text Style Line Length to 150. When you're typing and reach 150 length, It's suppose to automatically goes to the next line, likewise in Word document, and it is not doing it.
