You can easily add captions and other messages to your maps using text bubbles. To start, you need to switch to the Add Text mode by clicking the button. Now click on the map where you want the tip of the text bubble to point. You can now type in up to eleven lines of text. You can now click back to the Add Points mode if you like.

To move a text bubble, you can drag the the bubble’s little arrow or the edge of the bubble.

To delete a text bubble, you can click the X in the bubble’s upper-right corner.
