Hello, can someone help me find the new feature where a text box can be filled with latin as a placeholder?

Thanks, Linda

Choose Text from the QuickBuild menu

Select Insert dummy text from the flyout and the options dialog will appear.

You have to create the text object first before you can get to the Quickbuild options.

Linda --

I use OPUS' new place holding Latin "looking" text all the time, so I have added its icon to my center vertical menu bar. Go to Tools -> Custom then click the "Commands" tab and go to the end of the list to find "QuickBuild." Once selected, you'll see the last icon is "Insert Text as a Placeholder" which you can drag & drop to any OPUS menu.

After you have created a Text Object, just click the "new" icon and it will prompt you for how many paragraphs you want. It's GREAT.
