sounds like to need to highlight what you want to edit. if you want to change font face -- highlight everything and select the font face and font size from the drop down menus. if you want to change a word -- highlight the word. wen you done and want to position the text, then click the selection tool and drag your text to where you want it, or grab the sizing handles and scale or stretch the text.

cheers,

I am a novice at Inkscape ( 0.44.1 with WinXP) and have a problem getting started editing some text. I clicked on the text tool (A) and then on the text but the formatting changes that I try to do, do not happen. What am I missing? I tried in vain clicking the selection (upper left) arrow.
