I'm having a problem with the text tool

Hi ​@zoe amp 👋 Thanks for your post and welcome to the community,. In order to help you, we need more information. 

• Where in Figma are you having problems? In Design, for example?
• Are you using Figma in the browser or the Desktop version? 
• Is this happening in just one file or across all your files?

The single best thing you can share is a not zoomed-in screen recording showing the issue happening from start to finish. Thanks for the additional information! — Jaycee
