Jumper Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Hello people I have just downloaded Paint.NET after it being recommended as the poor student's Photoshop, and everything was going great. Then I tried inserting some text: click on the text tool and start typing, is what I thought I should do. I did that, and nothing happened, I've hunted through all my layers but no sign of any lettering. What am I missing? Please help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipp92 Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 maybe your primary color was transparent otherwise give us a screenshot Quote Personal Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 You probably had an active selection and were trying to type outside of that selection. Try pressing Ctrl-D before clicking on the text tool.

LuisR14 Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 probably you didn't click where you want to type the text Quote "Do not live to anybody's standards, live to your own standards". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 All good points. Also perhaps the layer you are typing on is obscured by another layer?
