Once added, double-tap on ‘Some text here’ to access all the formatting options.
In the pop-up editor, you can:

- Tap ‘Fill Color’ to add a background color to your text

‘Bring to Front’ places the selected image on the top-most layer, making it appear above all other elements.
‘Send to Back’ moves the image to the bottom-most layer, placing it behind everything else.
‘Move Up’ and ‘Move Down’ let you adjust the image’s position one layer at a time.
For example, if you have five overlapping images, tapping ‘Move Up’ will shift the selected image up by one layer. Tapping it again will move it up another layer, and so on.
‘Move Down’ works the same way, but moves the image one layer lower with each tap.
You can add images to your design, including food items, side dishes, commonly used design elements, vector shapes, and standard icons.
To use your own images, simply click the ‘Uploads’ button to browse and use them from the media files on your PC or laptop.
Shapes, text, and icons come with formatting options such as:
- Fill color – Lets you decide the outline color of the vector
- Stroke – Lets you decide the outline width for the shape or vector
- Opacity – It allows you to determine the transparency of the object
- Shadow – Allows you to add a shadow effect to the vector or image
Your can try and test these options to get the shapes and vectors based on your preference.
