Text Tool

Post by DrT »

I have a .jpg file with an image, which I copied from the Clipboard. I now want to add text NEXT to the image. That is I now want to type text and position the text after is typed.

When I use the Text Tool, the text cannot be moved.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you.

What version of PSP are you using? Assuming you're using X3 or your problem is similar:

Text palette options by cabbiinc, on Flickr

Make sure your text tool is set to either Vector or Floating under Create As
You'll need to finalize the text before you're able to move it

If it's not either of those issues let us know.

You might also want to put your text on a new layer.
