I wanted to end it all just because I couldn't figure out why no text was coming up but it turns out it defaults to white, on a white background. BRILLIANT. thank you!

[@lizzypeer8709]

Thank you for the tip. Very informative, since I'm a beginner with photoshop, and I'm having to learn how to move and edit things in photoshop, because my sister is needing me to be her part time photoshop assistant for her business.

its a testament to how unfathomably unintuitive alot of Adobe's software is that a video on how to add text can get so many views and likes from obviously exasperated people, myself included. thank you for the video

Bruh really thanks ❤

[@dom.carroll]

Such a simple thing, yet every article I searched gave the most ridiculous, complex instructions that made no sense to me, after 10 years of using photoshop; and all they had to say was click and drag the text tool. I'm currently both annoyed and relieved. Thank you for the video!

[@johnme60]

How can we add captions like they write quotes on photos , I found only picsart on android . Is there any software for pc to do that , can we do it on Photoshop if yes then how ? pls tell me , I'm new in this field .

When I use the text box, it doesn't make any line breaks it just goes outside of the text box and I can't see anything. Is there some sort of setting or did adobe change something?

I have one type layer. I want to add a second type Lair. So I lock the first type layer. Then click the title and click on the art board and then I get an error message saying that the type layer is locked even though I am clicked and selected on the new layer. What can I do?

Of course! You can also transform text to resize it but make sure not to skew!

Highlight your text with the type tool and you can adjust the font size in the top toolbar
