Change the text
The easiest way of changing the text is to delete the existing text (using Backspace) and then typing in the
wording you want.
You can also display the text cursor. Select the show/hide
cursor button on the standard toolbar.
You can then use the arrow keys on the keyboard to move the cursor in the text and to select part of the
text ? for more information on this, see select characters
.
To change the font or apply effects such as increasing the space between characters, you can use the
options in the text toolbar
.
Alternatively you can use the Text options dialog box
to select and change text and apply effects. This is often easier when you have several lines of text such
as in multi-page animations.
