the keyboard.

Modifications to the text attributes can be made using the Settings and Properties windows, which are

object after it has been created, double-click on the text object, then make the changes in the text entry
box which appears in the status bar. Use the Expand Entry button on the status bar for editing text with
multiple lines.
