Freestanding Text

The text tool can be used to add text to a document that is not associated with any object. This is useful for noting general information about a drawing.

To add freestanding text make sure no object is selected by selecting Edit->Deselect , then activate the text tool by selecting Tools->Text Tool. The mouse pointer will change to indicate the text tool is activated.

Drag a box to contain the text. A dialog box will appear prompting for the text, enter some text and click OK. The formatting of the text can be adjusted by selecting Format->Text... or by using the toolbars.
