Editing elements

You can create elements from the "Insert" menu on the menu bar, or the "Elements" toolbar (see

elements").

field
.
Move the mouse to where you want to enter the text.

If the mouse pointer looks like this, you can create a text field.
Press and hold down the left mouse button. Draw a box and release the
mouse button. An editing field opens, where you can enter text.

You can only enter text in text fields:
if the mouse pointer looks like this, you cannot enter text.

If you can see a red triangle in a text field after adding text, there is too
much text in the field. Not all of the text is displayed or printed. You will
need to shorten the text or reduce the font size (see chapter "Format
