      I'm new to SU/LO and am using one of the generic templates. I've typed my own company info in a pre-created text box, but when trying to create a new text box in another area of the title bar I can't make my text visible. I've used the text tool to create a rectangle, then typed inside of it and clicked outside of the box to finish, but the letters don't show up.

        Anne, is it possible that the active layer on which you are attempting to create your text is lower in the list than the layer on which the title block is placed? If so, your text is just being placed underneath. Unlike SketchUp's layers, the order of the layers in LayOut matter.
