Text nodes
With the Text tool (T), you can include any text on the canvas anywhere.
To add text on the canvas, select the text tool and either click on the canvas to create a “point type” textbox which will dynamically resize to contain its text contents, or drag a rectangle to create an “area type” in which the text content will automatically wrap to fit into the container.
To convert an area type text node to point type, set its width and height to zero.
Text boxes are not currently rendered in play mode.
The content of the textbox supports Markdown, which means you can add headings, links and images. Below are some example text using Markdown syntax. Feel free to edit the text on the left to see the effects.
