Alternately, you can drag on the canvas with the Text tool to create a text box, then tap inside to start typing.Text boxes are set to Wrap at frame by default, so line breaks are added at the edge of the text box.Text that does not fit inside the frame will not be visible.

Memo

When text wrapping is on, dragging the text box will change the text box size, not the font size.

When wrapping is off, you can adjust the font size by dragging the corners of the text box.

When text is selected, a launcher appears beneath the text.
