typing in a defined area

[amyb]

Linda mentioned some time ago that in Photoshop you can define a text box for journaling. I think this was when I was still downloading the Elements videos and she said it in passing as she was showing Elements users how to do it a different way. Does anyone know what I'm talking about and if so can you tell me how to do this?

Amy,

In photoshop Elements, you just get the text tool, and then click and drag a box out from upper left and lower right, and then you can start typing. I would expect it is similar in Photoshop, but I'll let a photoshop user tell you for sure.

Yes it is the same for CS2 (text tool, and then click and drag a box out from upper left and lower right). I just tried it. I have never use the text box before. Thanks for reminding me of this.

This is such a cool thing to know!! Thank you. Can you get a text box that is in a shape or just a square and rectangle? I'm using PSCS2.
