first off … i am not a novice user, but this is just killing me. :puzzle:

i can’t seem to add static text to any of the areas in this sliding menu:

the only way it seems to work is if i break it apart??? which is the way it has been done with the tute.

if anybody has an idea … well you win the million dollar question.

thanks! :thumb:
