How to input text?

I'm new to Paint.net - I just downloaded it, although admittedly I did use it a bit a few years ago.

 

I am trying to write some text onto the screen, and it is invisible. No matter what colour I have the text and/or background, it comes up invisible. What am I doing wrong?

You may have an active selection somewhere that is preventing text from appearing in unselected areas.

Press ctrl+d or esc to turn off the selection before you try to add your text.

No, Paint.NET is not spyware...but, installing it is an IQ test. ~BoltBait

   You might be selected on a part that you can't text. Just click on Rectangle Select on the background and the history will say "Deselect", then you can text.
