I started a project I added a text box and I can edit the text. I added a second text box and I cannot edit the text. I can change font size and color but a cursor will not appear in the box allowing me to type text.
Adobe Express supports inline text editing within the design canvas. To edit text, you must first enter text editing mode using one of several methods. Below are two common ways to enter text editing mode.
1. For a text object that is neither grouped nor overlaid with others:
Double-click the text or
Single-click the text twice
2. For text objects that are grouped or overlaid with other objects:
We're sorry to hear about this. Could you please let us know the process of how you're doing it? Since when have you been seeing this issue? Have you tried using the other suggested browsers (Safari, Microsoft Edge, and Google Chrome) to see if it makes a difference?
Try clearing the browser's cache and cookies to check if that helps and then give it a try.
This is also happening to me, but only when I start a new file using a template. Most of the templates have a texture at the very top that I need to lock first. Afterwards I can select the text boxes and can move/rezsize but am unable to edit the text. Double-clicking or anything mentioned as a solution does not solve the issue.
I was having the same issue -- if I added text in Adobe Express, I could select it and sometimes delete it, but couldn't edit and add my own text. I just discovered, though, if you write your desired text in another application, copy it, go back to Adobe Express to select the text, and then paste it, that works. And then magically, the text box also becomes editable... So something about copy and pasting seems to do the trick?
