Editing text
Within a text block, you can vary all aspects of text, including size, font, spacing, leading,
and baseline shift. When you edit text, Fireworks redraws its stroke, fill, and filter
attributes accordingly.
You can change a text block’s attributes using the Property inspector. If the Property inspector
is minimized, click the expander arrow in the lower right corner to see all text properties.

You can also use the Text Editor and the commands in the Text menu to edit text, but the
Property inspector offers the quickest way to change text attributes and provides more
detailed editing control than the other two options. For more information about the Text
Editor, see
“Using the Text Editor” on page 165
.

Click a text block with the Pointer or Subselection tool to select the entire block. To

Changes you make during a text-editing session constitute only one Undo. Choosing
Edit > Undo while editing text will undo every text edit you’ve made from the time you
