To Work With Single Line Text Changes

You can change the contents, formatting and properties of single-line text.

Move, Scale, and Rotate Text

Text objects have grips for moving, scaling, and rotating. A text object has grips at the lower-left corner of the baseline and at the alignment point.

The effect of a command depends on which grip you choose.
