Format free-form texts
You have several options for formatting free-form texts.
Procedure
Right-click in the free-form text and select the relevant pop-up menu:
- Click on Format/Representation to
- determine the font format and alignment (left, centered, or right),
- represent the entire text as a comment, i.e., like a post-it note,
- enable or prevent character formatting,
- specify the current free-form text formatting as the default for all new free-form texts.
The changes of appearance only affect the currently selected free-form text.
- Make sure that the Character formatting option in the Text properties (Format/Representation) dialog is enabled, and click on the Format/Character pop-up menu to highlight individual terms in bold or in color, for example.
- Click on Format/Paragraph to improve the legibility of individual paragraphs by applying numbering, bullets, or indents to them.
Tip
You can quick-access individual formatting functions using the toolbar.
