Having successfully inserted a piece of text into a picture I then mistakenly added and saved an empty text box which is stuck in the middle of the picture. Is there a way of deleting this box? ( I'm new to Photopad)
A new layer is created each time you insert text. Select the text element you want to delete to highlight that layer in the Layers list (near the top-right of the main window), then delete it by clicking the red cross icon for that layer.
