How to work with text in the Editor?
Text objects are very easy to work with. To add text to your content, click the “T” icon above the Stage. Next, click anywhere on the Stage and you will see a text box appear. Double click the default "Type Here" text in this text box to select it, and start typing to replace it with your text:
Once you’ve typed your text, you can start adjusting it. While your text object is selected, you can modify fonts, size, color, background and more in the Properties panel:
Resize the text by resizing the bounding box around the text on the Stage. Or, change the font size using the Font Size box.
You can change the font type by selecting any of the over 40 available fonts from the drop-down box next to Font Family:
Note: Enterprise and Max users can add their own custom fonts and colors.
You can also change the text style of individual words into bold or italic by clicking the icons next to Text Style.
You can change the color of your text by clicking the box next to Text Color and selecting a color from the color panel that appears. You can also change the background color of a text box by selecting Background Color. Here you can also modify the transparency of the text background:
