When creating a text field, automatically fill it with lorem ipsum.
Well, just as the title says. When selecting a text field and dragging across an art board, fill it with lorem ipsum automatically. If you don't need a dummy text - simply start writing to overwrite it. Would make prototyping text rich websites much faster.

Can we have this added please. This is essential for wireframing.

Please add a built-in feature to fill a text box with placeholder text (Lorem Ipsum). This feature would work much like Adobe Illustrator's "Fill With Placeholder Text".
It would save me a lot of time. Currently, I have to leave the app, go to a third-party placeholder text generator, copy, return to the app and paste.

+1 for having some kind of keyboard combination to fill the text area with Ipsum. The ability to specify your ipsum would be pretty cool as well.

Bonus : Ability to change default lorem ipsum pargagraph. So we can generate any type of default paragraph by default.

+1 for the alt click / right Mouse Button approach. Not sure how to control the amount of text... is filling the whole frame the best option?

Yes, one could always go to the web to copy and paste, but that involves extra unnecessary steps.
Remember Aldus Pagemaker? Yeah, back in 1985 they had a Lorem Ipsum generator built into that program!

It would be great to have an integrated lorem ipsum extension with customized options before generating the text
Thanks!!

I agree about drag the box with Shift or Ctrl if I want to use a Lorem ipsum 'cause for me many of the times I don't want it

YES! New illustrator does this, please, please do this. Would save so much time.

Perhaps something like holding down Shift or Ctrl as you drag could perform this function. I wouldn't want lorem ipsum to be the default. It's still a cool idea, though.
