How to put text over White-Out

**RESOLVED**: I used the ‘Add a text comment with a border’ tool and filled it with the color white. I then just flatten the PDF so it can’t be modified.

In older versions, there used to be an option to add a text box with a background color. This was an effective way to white out unwanted areas while also writing text over them. That option doesn’t seem to be available anymore.

The only alternative I have found is putting a white box (fill) over the unwanted sections, saving and exiting out of the PDF, and then putting text over it.

Is there a single tool that can achieve the same effect?

E.g. I would like the text to be on top of the box, not be covered by it.
