152 Painting, Drawing, and Text
To create a text selection:
1. Click the Text Tools flyout (Tools toolbar) and choose the
Text Selection Tool.
2. Click at the location on the image where you want to begin the selection.
OR
Drag across the page to size your text selection according to requirements.
Release the mouse button to set the point size.
3. (Optional) On the Text context toolbar, set the selection text attributes to be
adopted by the new selection (e.g., the font and point size).
4. Type your text directly onto the page.
5. When you're done, click the OK button on the context toolbar. A
selection marquee appears around the text's outline.
6. You can now cut, copy, move, modify, and of course fill the selection.
Unlike solid text, the text selection doesn't occupy a separate layer.
