Resize items on a Freeform board on Mac
You can resize an item freely, to modify its proportions any way you like, or proportionally, to make it larger or smaller without changing its essential shape.
Note: Groups containing certain items can only be resized proportionally. These items include images and movies that have been rotated, and shapes that have a green dot when selected.

When you resize a shape, the size of the text increases or decreases automatically based on the available space in the shape. If you want the text to stay the same size no matter the size of the shape, select Format > Text in the menu bar, then deselect Autosize Text.
