Short description of error
width and x of a textbox in a text object are wired to dimensions.x of a plane with drivers (scripted expressions). The idea is to center the textbox within the plane and make it the same width as the plane. When I scale the plane on the x-axis the values of the textbox change, but the textbox in the vieport doesn't update.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  • Open the attached blend-file
  • There is a plane and a text object
  • Scale the plane along the x-axis
  • The textbox should scale to match the new width of the plane and recenter itself (see the drivers in Text)
  • Select the Text object
  • Click into the field Size X and the press enter
  • The textbox is now resized and centered
