Editing text is done with the Text Tool. As already mentioned,
clicking on existing text will select that text object and enable
editing.
All the normal text editing keys function as expected:
Backspace, Arrows,
Enter, etc. Cut and paste also work (see above for
selecting text):
Cut: Ctrl+X,
Copy: Ctrl+C, and
Paste: Ctrl+V.
An alternative way to edit text is to use the
Text tab of the
Text and Font dialog
( → (Mayús.+Ctrl+T)).
Editing text in the tab has a couple of advantages, the
most important of which is that the text is spell checked as it is
typed. This option requires that GtkSpell
be installed and it must be compiled in (make sure that you have
the libgtkspell development library installed if you compile the
program yourself).
