Inserting Text in Effects/Decoration "Bubble"

dogdayfrodo wrote on 2/6/2013, 9:00 AM

I am using Photostory on DVD 2013 de luxe. When adding a Bubble/speech text to the photograph it is impossible to click/drag the actual text into the bubble. I have never had this problem with the previous three versions of Magix Photoshow I have purchased. I cannot find the answere in any manuals or Q & A's

Many thanks for replying John. I had tried the double click but the problem is moving and fitting the text into the bubble after it's been typed. It has a mind of it's own and the usual click and drag doesn't work. Will keep trying but it is frustrating when it worked simply on other versions.

Hi

When you try to move the text do you have the text object selected and the Effects tab selected as shown in this image here
