Creating a Text

You can create a text without leader.

  • When you change the element associated with the text, application keeps the associativity between the element and the text.
  • Using the Object Properties dialog box, you can define the anchor point, text size and justification.
  • You can move a text using the drag capability. Note also that you can resize the handles, for more information, See Handles.

Before you begin:
