Unable to add text to sketch with rectangular box

Hi all,

 

It's been a while since I used F360 again. At start I was forced to update to the January 2021 version.

I wanted to add text to a sketch, but had a lot of difficulties with it. In the past I was able to just select a point and then add text. The box dimensioned itself to the font size more or less.

No I needed to select two point in order to create the box. Did so, and after I gave the second point it was still asking for that second point.

i tried a couple of times, but was unable to make a box and insert text in there.

Could be that I'm doing it wrong. But how I read the instruction, I'm not. 

 

Please help me out.

@g-andresen Thanks for your response. But I'm not getting that far in F360. Please take a look at my screencast. This shows that the window to enter, center or select font is not apearing yet. Apperently I have to set two points first, and there is where it goes wrong.
