Editing vector text

Text editing refers to making changes in vector text, such as adding and deleting, or copying and pasting individual characters or blocks of vector text.

To edit vector text using the text creation tool:

1. Select the grouped vector text.
Note: If you have ungrouped the vector text, you cannot edit it, even if you group the characters again.
2. Select Vector > Create > Text or click the Create Vector Text button. The Tool Settings: Text Tool panel is displayed.
   Note: Alternatively, right-click the selected text and select Edit Text Block from the context menu.
3. Modify the text using the mouse or the panel.

   A selected block of vector text that has already been transformed (for example, sheared) is shown as a default block while the Tool Settings: Text Tool panel is active. After closing the Tool Settings: Text Tool panel, the transform is restored and any changes that you have made to the text are applied.

4. When you have finished your edits, click Create.

Note: If you want to edit a block of text as normal vectors, ungroup them after clicking Create. You cannot edit the vectors as a text block after they have been ungrouped.
