When I insert a new text tile in Overiew , I noted  that the text does not auto-adapt to the tile but the height of the text is fixed and very large and many times it does not fit all in the tile
Thanks

I increase the size but then , no mulriple rows are created.  
If in Detail I insert text on several lines in my textbox, in the tile the line is only one and continous

 That depends on field type:
  • Smaller font and word wrap is used when the field type is TextBox, like Notes in default configuration. 
  • Larger font and a single line is used when field type is ShortText or Text, I am not sure there is a difference between these 2 currently.

Notes is a text box field. 
I have a field called FOOD set as a text box like NOTES  but it is displayed differently from NOTES on overview page ,   Big font and single line 

I Have july build released

The field has to be TextBox at Tile creation time, if you changed the field type you need to remove the Metadata Tile and create a new one, or restart GC so this happens automatically. 

BTW, this is a general issue (feature?) of Overview: changes that are structural like this one or changing the series or polarized setting in Zones Tile also requires to recreate the Tile to refresh, I except to see a lot of questions about this.

The config changed notification from preferences should be captured by the overview tiles... this is a bug !
