Adding text to images

You can add text to an image by using the Text tool . The text that you add is then stored in a text

layer, which is automatically created for you as soon as you place the text cursor on the canvas. Each text

layer holds a single text block. The text layer is visible in the Layers panel, and is represented by a T icon
