Creation method#

There are two options for creating a Text node.#

  • The first way to create a Text node using the search list, which is opened by double left-clicking in the workspace. You can write the name of the node you need, or words associated with this node.
    • text , textBuilder
  • The second way is to select a Text node from the menu that opens from the top left.
    • Menu > Tool > Text > Text

Steps#

  • Create a Text node.
  • Connect the origin point of text to the first port.
  • Connect the text to create to the second port.
  • Connect the size of text shapes to the third port.
  • Optionally, connect the spacing x of text letter shapes to the fourth port.
  • Optionally, connect the spacing y of text letter shapes to the fifth port.

After creating a node, to the first port, connect the origin point of text, connect the text to create to the second port, and the size of text shapes to the third port. On the output ports, we will get the resulting text surface and resulting text curve.
