Text Element
Text elements contain user-defined text and characters, allowing direct data entry on the label.
Only alphanumeric characters can be used in a text element. Text elements can be single or
multi-line, however the text element does not “wrap” text (i.e., automatically start a new line
when the label boundary has been reached). For a multi-line text entry, press [Enter] to start a
new line.
Adding Text
To add text to a label when the Graphic Label Design function is turned on:
1.
Click the Text label object on the Action toolbar.
OR
Choose Insert>Label Objects>Text.
The mouse pointer becomes an I-beam, indicating that text can be entered.
2.
Click the mouse on the label at the point where the text should be placed.
3.
Enter the text.
A border displays around the text as it is being entered. This indicates the text line.
To add another line of text:
4.
Press [Enter].
5.
When finished entering the text, click anywhere on the screen to remove the typing line
borders.
