Also, there seems to be a dialog box above the canvas, and the the tool options
below. The box above the canvas (with Arial Heavy) seems to be controlling the
text, but the tool options box (calabri bold) below has the anti-alias checkbox,
why are there two? And how can I apply anti-alias to the text, if the above one
is controlling the edit? see attached image
