Ghansham,

Thanks for the clarification. You wish to enlarge the text rather than move it. 
One simple way to achieve this functionality in the Drawing Control is to 
select the text in question in the Shapes tab. Also in the Controls tab select 
the arrow control. Then in the map click the selected text. At this point you 
can CTRL+P to get the Glyph properties. Therein you can enlarge the size of the 
text. Is this sufficient for your purposes?

Please keep us up-to-date on your progress.

Best Wishes,

Unidata IDV Support
