Text is a crucial element of any creation. No matter how expressive the images or visual content you add to your genially, you’ll need some text to communicate your message.

 

In this tutorial we’ll show you how to insert text in Genially:


How to insert a text


1. Click on Text in the left sidebar. You’ll see different text boxes of different formats and text sets that you can add to your genially.

2. Click on the one you want to use and it will appear on your canvas.

3. Write the text you want. You can also place the text box wherever you like by simply dragging it around the canvas.



NOTE: When you copy text (whether from inside or outside of Genially) and paste it in a text box, the formatting of the text box that you paste it into will be applied to the text.

 

How to insert and edit a text set


Within the Text section, you’ll find a series of text sets, which are designs created by grouping various text boxes of different formats. These are designed to speed up your creative process. See one you like?

 

1. Open the Text section.

 

2. Click on the text set you’d like to use, or drag and drop it onto the canvas. 

 

3. Now click on the text box to modify it and write what you want it to say. These sets are also 100% editable, meaning you can personalize them by changing the color, size of the letters, or the font, to suit your needs.
