Adding Text to Drawings

The Text Draw icon needs additional explanation but is useful enough for nongraphics people to make its way into this chapter instead of being reserved for Chapter 7, which goes into advanced Draw tricks. To use this icon, click it, and then drag the little cross that the cursor becomes to where you want to type your text. Type it in, alter the font and text size exactly the same way as when you're creating a text document, and you have text.

The Text button.

This example changes the callout size and shape to fit around the text.

Who can resist such a huggable doggie?

Note

This is another set of actions that the videos will help make clear.
