chezz Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Hi, I just started using Paint.NET, and after I have created some text, when I want to edit them later (e.g. change colour, font, size etc), I couldn't find a way to? I know this is a simple question, so could someone please help me? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sozo Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 After you finalize it, the text is no longer editable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HELEN Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 CommanderSozo's right, but you can edit the color and size and not the font. You can set the tolerance level for the magic wand to 68%-70% to select all your font and then use the selection tool. After, you can change your color by going to Color Tint or Adjustments.

Ego Eram Reputo Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 ...and because the text is "fixed" once you have deselected the text tool or shifted the focus to another layer, it's a very good idea to get in the habit of always placing your text on its own layer. Now if you need to edit the text, it's a relatively painless process to delete the old layer and create a new one. If you have loads of text, keep a copy on a Word/Notepad document so you can simply cut-n-paste it into your image (when the texttool is active).
