Hi, I love Pixelmator Pro and use it 99% of the time for my editing needs. Today I needed to work on older layered images and had trouble editing the text. Can I ask why I couldn't see the options for setting text size, font, color, etc?

Pixelmator Pro does a good job of not exploding files from PSD files, unlike Acorn which cannot import a PSD layered file without massively changing its format. But for some reason today I couldn't figure out how to get the text options to show, and had to edit the files in (gasp!) Affinity Photo.

OK I figured it out, I think. Part of my problem was that the Text tool had been removed from my toolbar for some reason. I put it back in.

Hey, how did you put it back in? I can't find the text editing tool. I'm tring to get skills in learning design and not yet a profy. Perhaps, I've also removed it from the bar and don't have a clue where to get it back. Appreciate your help
