A text block is a rectangle where you type text on a presentation page. The different page tempates provide "Click here" text blocks whose look is determined by the template style. You can also create your own text blocks.
"Click here" text blocks display prompt text telling what to type. For example:
The prompt text disappers once you type text in the "Click here" text block.
Text levels are the levels of indentation for text in a text block or bulleted list. Each text block can have up to five levels of text.
To indent a level of text, you press TAB. To outdent a level of text, you press SHIFT+TAB.
Text blocks and text levels have properties such as font, point size, borders, text color, background color, bold, and italic. The way these properties are set controls how the text looks.
The text properties for a "Click here" text block are determined by the template you are using. If you choose a different template, the position and look of the "Click here" text blocks change according to the new template. When you create your own text blocks, you position them where you want and you set the text properties independent of the template.
You can change the properties in a "Click here" text block and in the text blocks you create. You can change the properties for an entire text block or any text level within a text block, but you cannot change the properties for a selected word or line of text in a text block or text level.
You manipulate text blocks like graphics. To select a text block, just click it. To move a text block drag it. To size a text block, click it and drag a handle. For more information about manipulating text blocks: see the following:
