Wrong text workflow?

Hello everybody!

I feel that I’m doing something wrong… If somebody has time, would you please assist me…

Let say I need to change font or font size. Selector Tool is active. I’m selecting text to be changed, and I don’t see how I can do necessary changes. So, I need to activate Text Tool and only after this text properties are available. Is any other way to access Text Properties without selecting Text Tool?

Thank you!

. . . . Is any other way to access Text Properties without selecting Text Tool . . . .

Like many image editing programs the Text tool must be selected and the text highlighted to change font, size, colour etc as shown in the somewhat frivolous example below.

@johnebaker thank you. Don't know about Corel Draw, but that's not the case with illustrator: you can have selector tool to select text, properties automatically shows font, size etc...
