Uh ok

To edit the text in a SmartArt Graphic, you must first select the SmartArt object. Here's how you can do that:

1. Open the document or presentation where the SmartArt Graphic is located.
2. Navigate to the slide or page that contains the SmartArt Graphic.
3. Click on the SmartArt object to select it. You should see the handles and the Text Pane appear.

Once the SmartArt Graphic is selected, you can proceed to edit the text. The specific steps for editing the text may vary depending on the software you are using (e.g., Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, etc.). However, you can usually edit the text in one of two ways:

1. Edit the text directly in the SmartArt Graphic: Place your cursor on the text box you want to edit within the SmartArt Graphic and start typing or make necessary changes.

2. Edit the text using the Text Pane: Look for the Text Pane usually located on the left side of the screen. Click inside the Text Pane and make the desired changes. This option can be especially useful if the SmartArt Graphic has multiple levels or complex hierarchy.

Remember to save your changes once you're done editing the text in the SmartArt Graphic.
