Hi, Erin, all goes well until the step when I need to select the text box, press and hold the Shift key. The shape frame doesn't appear at all. Please, can you help? I use my laptop, windows. Thanks.

Thank you for watching! I was unable to replicate your issue, so unfortunately I don't have a solution. Perhaps you can create the shape away from the text box and then drag it over the text. You could then right-click and select Move to Back so the text is in front...in theory, the shape should stay selected and you should then be able to Shift-select the text box.

Thanks, Erin, for trying to find a solution. I tried it the way you suggested, however, without a success. Maybe there is some obstacle in my lap top, some apps or something, what blocks be from doing this. I will search.... Thanka again. @@erinwrightwriting

Hi Erin, My right click menu does not have the add text option. How can I add text to my shape without that option? Thank you

Thank you for watching! One workaround would be to create the shape and then select Draw Text Box from the Shape Format tab. You can then type the text and position the text box over the shape. If necessary, change the text box background color to No Fill and the outline to No Outline so it blends with the shape. I hope that helps!

How can I format text to fit inside a triangle or pizza?
@erinwrightwriting6 ай бұрын
Thank you for watching! You can choose the triangle shape in the Shapes menu and then follow the steps shown here. If you want to use an image of actual pizza, you could place a text box over the pizza. I have a separate tutorial about text boxes, which you may find helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYmqe42td76Drc0.

@@erinwrightwritingthank you for responding. I did add a text box to the pizza but I can't get the wording to fit in side the triangle shape as the text box is square.

Thank you for watching! I have been using Word academically and professionally since college, so I guess you can say I learned it through heavy usage. :)
