How Do I Create and Edit Text on the Canvas in Modmath 4.0?

Text boxes let you attach written annotations to any area of the canvas — useful for instructions, feedback, reminders, or explanations.

Adding Text

1. In the canvas toolbar, select Add Text.
2. Click anywhere on the canvas — a text box will appear with the placeholder text "Type text."
3. Type your content. Press Enter or Return to add line breaks.
4. Click anywhere outside the text box to finish and save.

 

Adjusting Your Text Box

• Resize the text box by dragging any of the blue corners.
• Use the side toolbar to rotate, duplicate, or delete the text box.

 

Editing an Existing Text Box

1. Click Add text.
2. Click on the text box you want to edit.
3. Make your changes directly in the box.
4. Click outside the text box to save.

 

Deleting a Text Box

1. Click the text box to select it.
2. In the side toolbar, tap the Delete icon (trash icon).

The text box is removed immediately.

Tips

• Text boxes are saved as part of the workbook file. When you export a .mm file, text boxes are included.
• Text boxes are visible directly on the canvas for both students and teachers when the same workbook file is opened.
