Pro-only Features:
Pro Feature Tools Available
Add and Edit Multi-Line Text
Within each text box, you can include multiple lines of text. As you type, hit the Enter key to create a new line.
Once you've entered your text, you can change the font type, color, and add bold or italic formatting for all the text within the selected box.
You can also make the text left-, center-, or right-justified, and change the spacing between the lines. See the options above the image while your cursor is inside a text box.
Curved Text
To use the Curved Text tool, first select your text box and then click the curved text tool.
You can move the control in either direction to curve the text upward or downward. If your text is long enough, increasing the curve may cause the text to continue bending until it forms a circular shape.
This tool works well for titles, decorative text, and designs that need a more rounded layou
Copy and Paste
You can quickly copy and paste both text and images within the Caption Editor.
To do this, select the text or image you want to duplicate, then right-click and choose Copy. Place your cursor where you want it to appear, then right-click again and choose Paste.
This is helpful when you want to reuse text, repeat design elements, or duplicate part of your layout without starting over.
Color Picker
The color picker lets you change the color of any caption on your image. Select a caption on the canvas, then click the palette button (<i class="fas fa-palette"></i>) in the toolbar to open the picker.
Choosing a Color
Color Swatches (Default View) The picker opens with a grid of preset colors. Click any swatch to apply it to your selected caption instantly. The picker stays open so you can try different colors without reopening it.
Advanced Color Picker. For a custom color, click the slider icon in the bottom-right corner to switch to the advanced view. Here you can:
Drag the color palette — move the circle around the large square to fine-tune the shade and brightness.
Drag the hue slider — slide along the rainbow bar below the palette to change the base color.
Type a hex code — enter an exact color value (e.g. FF6347) in the hex field at the bottom.
To switch back to the swatch grid, click the grid icon.
Recent Colors
Colors you've used during your session appear in a Recent row at the top of the picker, so you can quickly reuse them without searching again.
Eyedropper
Click the eyedropper icon to pick a color directly from your image. Your cursor will change — click anywhere on the canvas to sample that color.
Removing a Color
Click the remove icon (<i class="fas fa-times"></i>) to clear the color from the selected caption.
Tips
The picker remembers your last view (swatches or advanced) and reopens in that mode.
Click anywhere outside the picker to close it.
The color bar under the palette icon always shows your current color at a glance.
Resize Text and Text Boxes
As always, you can specify a font size in the number window or from its drop-down list.
Another way to change the font size within the text box is to use the touch points on the top and bottom corners of the box. Simply choose, click, and drag a corner point.
You can also stretch the text to make words wider or narrower by dragging the center points on the sides, top, or bottom of the box.
