In PowerPoint I need to make a text box with a diagonal line running from
corner to corner that stays attached to the corner when the text box is in
“Resize Autoshape to fit text†so that the box and the line stretch to match
the text size.
 
Draw your text box, add your line, and group them. The line will stretch
with the box.

That works fine if you manualy stretch the box. I want the line to stretch
with the box when the text box is in Autoshape to fit Text.
 
It will if you stretch the box when dragged, but not in autosize with text.
I like your idea much better good one.

| You could insert a single cell table and add a diagonal "border"
