Adding text to a shape (Diagrams)

hello

i’m trying to create a diagram, and i have added a rounded corner shape. on the sidebar i see plenty of options for formatting text as part of this shape but where or how do i input the actual text i want in the shape?

OK figured it out, for some reason that specific shape wasn’t working. i deleted it, added a new one, then simple double clicked on the shape then i could add text. not sure what i did to remove the capability from the first one but it seems OK now!

Welcome to the forum, @fediversefan. :slight_smile:

And thanks for posting the solution. Fantastic!

Weird… Well, glad it all worked out.

Can we get a little more info though?

  • Was this a new ODG file + a new shape you drew? Or did you open an old ODG file of yours and then begin editing?
  • And what version of Collabora Draw were you using?
    • If you press Help > About, you can get the exact version and other info.

Thanks, and definitely let us know if you have any more questions or come across any other issues. :slight_smile:
