4.3.2.4. Insert a Text object into the Design World
The following steps cause a Text object to be inserted and selected in the Design World:
-

To change the "Default text" to the desired text, right click on the selected Text object and select
Edit Properties from the context menu. This opens the standard
Decorative Drawing Object Properties dialog, but with one additional detail -- a text box to set the
Text Value on top of it. Editing this text and clicking the
Save button on the bottom will save the new text, close this dialog and display the new text.
In addition to inserting Text in Design World, IRM supports additional actions for Text by way of context menu options:
-
View and edit Text Properties
-
Cut, Copy, Paste and delete Text
