Description

Issue type

UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)

Description with steps to reproduce

Insert a vertical frame
Add multiple text lines to frame until frame height auto adjusts
Properties shows height of 10 rather than actual height
Manually adjusting height to larger value actually makes frame smaller!

Expect displayed frame height in properties to match actual height.
