Changing the Text Editing Color

Part 15 of 22 in series Text Tab

When you double click to put a text object in editing mode, the background fills with white. If you have white or light colored text, you may not be able to see the text. You can still edit the text, but it is more difficult to see. When that happens, you can change the text object’s background color that is used during editing. You can have a different editing color for each text object.
