Last week this question was asked by a Google Doc User in the Google Doc Help Forum. This is when I discovered the easiest way to add a movable text box in a Google Doc is by inserting a Google Drawing. This will allow you to insert text which may be easily dragged around a Google Doc once the Text Break and “0” Margins are selected. Please check out the following easy steps to success for adding a draggable text box into a Google Doc.
ADDING DRAGGABLE TEXT BOX
- Open a Google Doc
- In Tool Bar Click Insert, followed by Selecting Drawing
- A Pop Up Window Opens
- Select the Text Box Tool from Tool Bar
- Drag Text Box to Size
- Click More in the Tool Bar
- This allows you to select text style
- Type Words into the Text Box
- Size the Text Box (Close to the Text’s outer perimeter)
- Click Save & Close Button
- Under Text Box Click “Wrap Text” or “Break Test” and a “0 inch” Margin
- This will allow you to move the text box around depending upon the layout
You’re awesome. Thank you!
