hi there

i am having a difficulty typing text on pixelmator. the text does not show on the image. the cursor follows as i type the text but the letters are not visible.
the only thing i can do to write on the image is by copy pasting from my word document.

Hey there, this issue was fixed quite a while ago now, are you sure you have the latest version of Pixelmator? You should be at 3.7.5 and if you’re not, it would be a good idea to move the current version to the Trash and download a fresh copy from the Mac App Store.

Is the text layer on top of all layers? It may be hidden by other layers.
