{| border=1
|| ''Time''
|| ''Narration''

|-
||00.01
|| Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on '''Inserting Text in Drawings''' in LibreOffice Draw.

|-
||00.07
||In this tutorial, we will learn how to:

|-
||00.10
|| Work with text in drawings
|-
||00.12
|| Format text in drawings and
|-
||00.15
||Work with text boxes

|-
||00.17
|| We will also learn to:

|-
||00.19
||Set indents, space and align text
|-
||00.22
|| Add text to Lines and Arrows
|-
||00.26
|| Place text within '''Callouts. '''

|-
||00.29
||Text can be added in two ways:
|-
||00.31
|| It can be directly inserted into a drawn object,
|-
||00.35
||Including on lines and arrows.
|-
||00.37
|| It can be inserted into a text box as an independent Draw object.

|-
||00.42
||Here we are using
|-
||00.44
||Ubuntu Linux version 10.04 and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4.

|-
||00.52
|| Let us open the Draw file “'''Water Cycle'''” and add some text to it.

|-
||00.57
|| We shall add the text “'''Cloud Formation'''” to the two white clouds next to the sun.

|-
||01.04
|| Select the white cloud group.
|-
||01.06
||Double-click on it in order to enter the group.

|-
||01.10
|| Let us select the top cloud.

|-
||01.13
||Now let’s select the '''Text''' tool from the Drawing toolbar.

|-
||01.17
|| Can you see the cursor has transformed into a small vertical blinking line?
|-
||01.23
||This is the text cursor.

|-
||01.25
|| Let us type the text “'''Cloud Formation'''”.

|-
||01.29
|| Now click anywhere on the page

|-
||01.33
|| Let us enter the same text for the other white cloud, too.

|-
||01.37
|| To exit the group, double-click anywhere on the page.

|-
||01.42
|| Let us now name the sun in the same way.

|-
||01.45
|| Entering text in objects cannot get simpler than this!

|-
||01.50
|| Next, let us select the gray cloud group.
|-
|| 01.53
||As before, double-click on it to enter the group.

|-
||01.57
|| Type “'''Rain Cloud'''” in each cloud.

|-
||02.02
|| As the text in the gray clouds is black in color, it is not visible.
|-
||02.07
||So let us change the color of the text to white.

|-
||02.11
|| Select the text and right-click for the context menu and select “'''Character'''”.

|-
||02.17
|| The “'''Character'''” dialog box is displayed.
|-
||02.20
||Click on the “'''Font''' '''Effects'''” tab.

|-
||02.23
|| In “'''Font''' '''color'''” field, scroll down and select “'''White'''”.
|-
||02.28
||Click '''OK'''.
|-
||02.30
||The font color changes to white.

|-
||02.33
|| In the same manner, let’s change the text color of the second cloud.

|-
||02.38
||Select the text and right-click then select “'''Character'''”.

|-
||02.43
|| In '''“Font color”''' choose '''“White”.'''

|-
||02.46
|| Double-click anywhere on the page to exit group.

|-
||02.50
|| Similarly, let’s type the word “'''Mountain'''” in the triangle that depicts the mountain.

|-
||02.58
|| You can format text for

|-
||02.59
||Character, that is change font styles and give special effects to fonts.

|-
||03.05
|| You can also format text for Paragraph, that is align text, set indents or spacing and set tab positions.
|-
||03.13
|| You can access these dialog boxes either

|-
||03.16
||from the '''Context '''menu or
|-
||03.18
||from the '''Main menu'''.

|-
||03.21
|| To access the '''Character '''dialog box from the '''Main '''menu, select '''Format '''and select '''Character'''.

|-
||03.28
|| To access the '''Paragraph '''dialog box from the '''Main '''menu, select '''Format '''and select '''Paragraph'''.

|-
||03.36
|| In the rectangle, let’s draw a thick black line to show where the ground water accumulates.

|-
||03.43
|| From the '''Drawing '''tool bar, select “Line”.
|-
||03.46
||Move the cursor to the page, press the left-mouse button and drag from left to right.
|-
||03.54
||Draw a horizontal line that will divide the rectangle into two equal halves.

|-
||04.01
||The ground is divided into two!

|-
|| 04.04
|| Now, let’s make the line wider.
|-
||04.07
||Select the line and right-click for the context menu.
|-
||04.11
||Click on “Line”. The “Line” dialog box appears.

|-
||04.16
|| In the “'''Style'''” field, click the drop down box.
|-
||04.20
||Select “Ultrafine '''2 dots 3 dashes'''”.
|-
||04.24
||In the '''Width '''field, enter the value point '''.70'''.
|-
||04.29
||click ''OK''.

|-
||04.31
||We have widened the line!

|-
||04.34
|| Lets insert the text “'''Ground water table'''” inside the rectangle.

|-
||04.39
|| First, let’s select the '''Text '''tool.
|-
||04.42
||This is the '''capital “T”''' option on the Drawing toolbar.
|-
||04.46
||Move to the draw page.
|-
||04.49
||Now the cursor has been transformed into a ''' Plus sign '''with a small capital I '''beneath it.

|-
||04.55
|| Click inside the rectangle.
|-
||04.57
||Observe that a text box appears.
|-
||05.01
||Here, let's type “'''Ground water table'''”.

|-
||05.05
|| To align the text to the centre of the text-box, place the cursor inside the text box.
|-
||05.12
||Click on “Centered” icon in the Standard toolbar at the top.

|-
||05.19
|| In a similar manner, let’s add the text
|-
||05.22
||''“Rain water flows from land into rivers and sea” '''in the triangle.

|-
||05.30
|| Pause this tutorial for the assignment.

|-
||05.33
|| Draw a square.
|-
||05.35
|| Insert the text “This is a square.
|-
||05.38
||A square has four equal sides and four equal angles. Each angle in a square is ninety degrees.

|-
||05.46
|| The square is a quadrilateral.”

|-
||05.50
||Format this text using the options in the Text dialog box.
|-
||05.54
|| Apply the font, size, style and alignment options to the text.

|-
||06.00
|| Now let’s arrange the arrows in the diagram.
|-
||06.03
||These arrows show evaporation of water from land, vegetation and water bodies to the clouds.

|-
||06.12
|| Let’s select the left-most arrow.

|-
||06.14
||Now click and drag towards the mountain.

|-
||06.18
|| Let’s select the middle arrow.

|-
||06.21
||Now click and drag towards the trees.

|-
||06.25
|| The third arrow shows evaporation of water from water to the clouds.

|-
||06.31
|| Let’s use the option '''Curve '''to draw a line that shows water running down the mountains.

|-
||06.37
|| From the Drawing toolbar click on “'''Curve'''” and select “'''Freeform Line'''”.

|-
||06.43
|| On the draw page place the cursor next to the Mountain.
|-
||06.47
||Press the left mouse button and drag down.
|-
||06.51
||You have drawn a curved line!

|-
||06.53
|| Now let’s add descriptions to each of these arrows.

|-
||06.58
|| Select the first arrow to the right and simply type '''“Evaporation from rivers and seas”'''.
|-
||07.06
||Click anywhere on the page.
|-
||07.08
||The text appears on the line.

|-
||07.12
|| Notice that the text is placed exactly on the line and hence it is not clear.

|-
||07.18
|| To move the text above the line, click on the line.
|-
||07.22
|| Text is placed horizontally.

|-
||07.25
|| Place the cursor at the end of the text and press the “Enter” key.
|-
||07.30
||Click on the page.
|-
||07.32
||The text gets aligned.

|-
||07.35
|| Text typed on lines and arrows can also be formatted using options from the context menu.

|-
||07.41
|| Let’s format the font size using the context menu.

|-
||07.45
|| Click on the text
|-
||07.47
||“Evaporation from rivers and seas”.
|-
||07.50
||The text is now horizontal.

|-
||07.53
|| Let’s select the text and right-click to view the context menu.
|-
||07.58
||Select '''Size '''and click '''22'''.
|-
||08.02
||The size of the font has changed.

|-
||08.05
|| Now, let’s type the following text for all the other arrows.

|-
||08.09
||'''Evaporation from soil '''
|-
||08.12
||'''Evaporation from vegetation'''
|-
||08.17
||'''Run off water from the mountains '''
|-
||08.22
|| Let’s show rain falling from the grey clouds.

|-
||08.26
|| To show rain, let’s draw dotted arrows, which point downward from the cloud.
|-
||08.32
||From the '''Drawing '''toolbar, select “'''Line Ends with Arrow'''”.

|-
||08.37
|| Then place the cursor on the first grey cloud to the left.
|-
||08.42
||Press the left mouse button and drag it down.

|-
||08.46
|| RIght-click for the context menu and click “'''Line'''”.
|-
||08.50
||The “'''Line'''” dialog box appears.

|-
||08.53
|| Click on the “'''Style'''” drop-down list and select
|-
||08.56
||''2 dots 1 dash'''.
|-
||08.58
||Click '''OK'''.
|-
||09.00
||We have drawn a dotted arrow.
|-
||09.02
|| Let’s copy and paste two more arrows for this cloud.

|-
||09.06
|| Now let’s copy and paste two arrows to the other cloud.

|-
||09.12
|| Now let’s add the text '''“Rain”''' to the dotted arrows.

|-
||09.21
|| Let’s type the text '''“Evaporation to form the clouds”''' in a text box just above the '''Water '''object.
|-
|| 09.28
||From the '''Drawing '''toolbar, select the '''Text '''tool and draw a text box as shown.
|-
||09.35
||Type '''“Evaporation to form the clouds”''' inside it.

|-
||09.41
|| From the '''Drawing '''toolbar, select the " Text Tool".
|-
||09.44
||And draw a text box next to the grey clouds.
|-
||09.48
||Type “'''Condensation to form rain'''” inside it.

|-
||09.53
|| Move the text box by first clicking on the border of the text box.
|-
||09.57
||Now drag and drop it in the desired location.

|-
||10.02
|| Following the previous steps, let’s give the Title '''“WaterCycle Diagram”'''

|-
||10.07
||Using a text box and format the text in Bold.

|-
||10.16
|| We have completed drawing the Water Cycle diagram!

|-
||10.20
|| Now, let’s learn about '''Callouts'''.

|-
||10.22
||What are '''Callouts'''?
|-
||10.24
|| They are special text boxes that call your attention to or
|-
||10.29
|| point to an object or a location in the Draw page.
|-
||10.33
||Most comic books, for example, have
|-
||10.36
||text placed inside '''Callouts'''.

|-
||10.39
|| Let’s add a new page to the Draw file.
|-
||10.42
||From '''Main '''menu, select '''Insert '''and click on '''Slide'''.
|-
||10.47
||A new page is inserted.

|-
||10.50
|| To draw a '''Callout''', go to the '''Drawing '''toolbar.

|-
||10.54
|| Click the small black triangle next to the '''Callout '''icon.
|-
||10.59
||Various '''Callouts '''are displayed.
|-
||11.01
||Let’s click on '''Rectangular Callout'''.

|-
||11.04
|| Move the cursor to the page, press the left-mouse button and drag.
|-
||11.10
||You have drawn a '''Callout'''.

|-
||11.12
|| You can enter text inside the '''Callout '''just as you did for the other objects.

|-
||11.18
||Double-click and type the text “This is an example” inside the '''Callout'''.

|-
||11.25
