Hi klaziena-waerts ,watch the default text size that is used for the first text insertion point of your text frame, maybe it's too large to fit in your small frame.Draw out a frame that is larger.Or invoke panel Window > Control, switch your tool to the Type tool and set a smaller point size as default there.Control panel enabled with default text point size 12:More details here:Workspace basics in InDesign Regards,UweHi, I have found out the problem  thank to your remark about the lettersize.Then I realized that the text that I wanted to place there just didn't fit. I have resized the images and now I could place my text just fine Thank you, and everybody in this chat, for all your kind help!!

Start to draw texb box outside. Use any text you nee and then place your text box over image. If text dissapears you probably have any wprap text option selected! Be sure you check it for Image - not for text box. in this case image move text

or

Check layers panel (F7). Maybe your text is below image?
