We have 2 types of Text Objects:
1) The insert Text feature that is available in the Main toolbar at the top of the Creately application.

So when you're looking for a transparent text field that's flexible - use the Text button (A) on the Main Toolbar. When you want to add a specific text label as part of a UI mockup, we suggest the FreeForm Text object from the UI library.
Let us know if you think we can make this work better in any way.
Cheers
