Text Added to Drawn Objects Does Not Appear

Post by BobH »

I've created a page with several drawn rectangles. I want to put text into the objects to identify what the areas will contain; however, after right clicking and choosing Add Text and typing, nothing appears either while I'm typing or after I've finished typing. All of the objects have no fill.

I searched and could only find a reference from 2012 that said to choose Format.

The .docx is attached.

Click on a rectangle and set the font color to black instead of Automatic.
