Text Editing highlight feature?

Post by CryoTech »

I am trying to edit text in Lightburn. For example, if I create a sentence like this: “How to edit this”, and later want to change it to “How to EDIT this” where I take the word EDIT and apply a different font, font size, bold, underline, etc. How do I do this? I keep thinking that there must be a way to edit the text like you would do with Microsoft Word, or Mac Pages where you just highlight the words or letters you want to edit, and then apply the desired changes. I am not able to highlight anything. What am I missing here?

No, there is no method to selectively edit text in the individual text block. The EDIT TEXT SHAPE affects the whole text block.

You would have to do the text as 3 different blocks...."How to"...."EDIT"...."this" in order to change the font. At least as far as I know. It is a bit odd you cant change the font inside of the text block on certain letters but that is how it is....for now.
