There are two ways to insert text into presentation. One way is to use the AutoLayout as
described in the Format slides section. The other way is to type text in a text box you create
using the text tool.
1. Click in the text box that reads “Click here to...”
2. Type your text in the text box.
In Drawing View:
1) Click on the Text icon in the main toolbar. See Figure 11: Main toolbar. (If the
main toolbar is not visible, choose View > Toolbars > Main Toolbar.)
2) Click and drag to draw a box for the text on the slide. Do not worry about the size and
position—the text box will expand if needed as you type, and you can move the text
box with its text and resize it later if you want. See the following sections, Moving a
text box and Resizing a text box.
3) Release the mouse when finished. The cursor appears in the text box which is now in
edit mode (gray border with green resizing handles).
4) Type your text in the text box.
5) Click outside the text box to deselect it.

Note: The small triangle in some
of the icons on the Main toolbar
indicates that there are other tools
you can use. To access these tools,
long-click (click and hold) on any
icon with a small triangle. The
icons for the other tools appear to
the right of the toolbar.
