 +====== Add a Text Object ======
 +
 +In Objects and Animation it is possible to add a Text Object to a Slide by clicking on the Text Icon (T) on the Menu Bar.
 +
 +{{:en-us:9.0:techniques:v9-text-01.jpg}}
 +
 +The Properties of the TEXT are shown in the Properties Tab on the Right.
 +
 +Choose a Font from the dropdown Menu and other attributes such as Bold, Italic, Underlined and/or Color.
 +
 +==== Font Size ====
 +
 +Note that there is no Font Size but that the Text Box has a Percentage Zoom which controls the size of the Font.
 +
 +{{:en-us:9.0:techniques:v9-text-02.jpg}}
 +
 +Note also that one line of Text in the above example = 15% Zoom. Two lines of Text = 30% Zoom; three lines of Text = 45% etc. This relationship will continue until the size of the "bounding box" is altered via a mouse action.
 +
 +{{:en-us:9.0:techniques:v9-text-03.jpg}}
 +
 +In the next Example it can be seen that One line of Text at 6% gives the same Font Size as 16 lines of Text at 96% Zoom. Knowing this relationship allows the user to create a consistent Font Size across multiple Slides.
 +
