While storyboards contain a large amount of visual content, most, if not all storyboards contain text—often a significant amount—to complement drawings and provide supporting information.
Text can appear in your storyboard panel, using the Text drawing tool. Text is most often found outside the visual portion of the panel in captions, which can be associated with the entire storyboard or a specific panel.
For each panel, four text fields for captions are provided by default, but more can be added and the type of caption category is up to the story artist. Depending on the workspace, captions for panels are displayed in the Panel View underneath or to the right of each panel, or in the Tool Properties Panel Tab.
Captions that apply to the entire storyboard can be entered using the Tool Properties Storyboard Tab. The Script text field is provided by default, but you can customize this tab to add as many text fields as needed for your captions.
The following tasks describe how to work with text:
