I followed your suggestions and I clicked on the text editor in the Tool Options box to see my input and it was there. Then I went to the Layers dialog, selected Stack, and reversed the order of the layers so Layer 1 was at the top. I saw the text I entered was in the layer with the large T in it but it was near the bottom of the stack. I selected that layer, moved it to the top, where it should have been, and the text appeared as it should be.
I will be looking for a default setting for how the layers stack, with the Base Layer at the top. Are there default settings for such preferences that I might not know are there due to their names or technical terms? Thank you so much for giving me a hand and helping me to find the answer. Be safe and stay well.
