Thank you for watching! If you save your file as a Word 97-2003 document, the older version of WordArt will become available in Word for Microsoft 365.
Thanks for the reply. I saved the document as a Word 97-2003 document, but I still find no way to insert Wordart or to modify its shape. My menu options don't change from what's (not) offered in Word 365.
Thank you for watching! If you click your cursor in an area away from the shape, the shape should no longer be selected so the border and shape tools should disappear. I wish you all the best with your Word project!
Thank you for watching. I am sorry to hear that you are having issues creating shapes. Just to clarify, you have the shapes option in your version of Word; however, your cursor doesn't turn into the crosshair cursor?
Great question! I have a separate tutorial about the text boxes (ua-cam.com/video/oXGJZwBYPwk/v-deo.html) All the formatting shown there can also be applied to the text boxes in shapes. Thank you for watching!
Thank you for watching! Usually, you can click your cursor near the bottom, right corner and then press the Enter key to move down to the next line. Turning on Show/Hide to see formatting (it looks like the paragraph symbol) in the Home tab can also make it easier.
All the steps shown here are listed with images on my website at erinwrightwriting.com/shapes-in-microsoft-word/. Thank you for watching!
