krollian Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Hello I have several text boxes one behind another in a document. In FreeHand I can select a text box that is behind of another and at that moment the element is active so I can edit the text and make changes. It is not possible in Affinity Designer? I can do Option + Clic and select the element behind, but I can not edit the text. When I tried, the box text goes is deselected and the most front box goes active. Selecting the text box via Layers panel comes to similar results. Thanks. Quote Graphic designer from Bilbao (Spain) FreeHand forever. Affinity Designer rocks! - Diseñador gráfico de Bilbao (España).

Aammppaa Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 See GIF. I have three text layers. I Alt + Click to select behind the top layer. Once back most layer selected, I press T to switch to text tool. Then am able to drag to select (or click to insert cursor) directly into the selected text frame (in this case the back one). I then type a load of garbage ;) Quote Win10 Home x64 | AMD Ryzen 7 2700X @ 3.7GHz | 48 GB RAM | 1TB SSD | nVidia GTX 1660 | Wacom Intuos Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krollian Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 Ok. In FreeHand is not necessary to select the letter of the Text Tool. Thanks :) Aammppaa 1 Quote Graphic designer from Bilbao (Spain) FreeHand forever. Affinity Designer rocks! - Diseñador gráfico de Bilbao (España). FreeHand forever. Affinity Designer ¡mola!
