Text not appearing in text box on Paint 3D

When I try to create a text box on top of a photo, I get nothing - nada, zero, zilch.

Here are the steps I'm taking:

1. right click on a jpeg file and select "edit with paint 3D"

2.click on "T" (text) at the top, hover over the area I want my text box and click again.

...at that point I get the active text box with animated border, the drag-to-resize squares and the rotate icon.

No matter what I do (resize the box, click inside and start typing, double click, right click, change fonts, increase/decrease the font) NOTHING appears
in the box. I'm positive nothing else is selected or running behind the image.

Thanks for any help - you guys ROCK !
