Editing Captions Often, the designer of a template will include one or more text captions. You may be happy leaving the text the way the designer recommended, but you are free to change it. To change the properties of a caption, simply click on the desired item. Once you have selected a caption, the 'Edit Caption Properties' dialog box will appear as shown in the following diagram.
Moving the Caption To move the caption, left click on the caption within the 'Active Layout'. While holding down the mouse button, move the mouse so that the caption is positioned in the desired place, then release the left mouse button. Edit Caption Properties Dialog
