In this guide, we'll explore how to create and edit text objects in your project at YAHAHA Studio (Studio). Text objects are crucial for displaying clean text in virtual worlds, such as hints, instructions, or virtual set elements. Note: Currently, text objects you created may not be animated or published to Asset Library.
Creating text objects
To add a text object to your scene, follow these steps:
- Go to Scene Explorer.

A text object will be added to your scene with the default Text content, and its properties will appear in the Properties window on the right side of the screen.
