I do remember in version 2016.37 finding 4 layers but now no layers can be found.
Attached is a screen shot of the settings.
Thanks

I have just found how to add a layer.
But
Can I add a boarder around with text inside?.
Thanks
Colin

Yes, marquee, use sub buffer for size, then add text.

Marquee has a position tab that most seem to not notice.  With that you can pretty much position it anywhere.
