# Text, Icons & Images

You can use text, Icons, and Images to add visual design, branding, and instructional information to your interface. These are static elements, meaning they are typically non-interactive, though you can turn Icons into navigation links.

## Text Box

Use Text Boxes for titles, labels, and detailed instructions.

* **Add**: Click the Text Box icon in the Frontend Builder Toolbar and click the Canvas to place it.
* **Edit**: Double-click the Text Box to open the text editor. You can type, format your text, and insert static tables.

## Icons

Use Icons as visual cues or navigation shortcuts.

* **Add**: Click the Icon button in the Frontend Builder Toolbar, pick an Icon from the library, and click the Canvas to place it.
* **Style**: Double-click the Icon to open its settings. You can switch styles (solid, regular, light, thin, duotone), change the color, and apply a background.
* **Navigation**: You can turn an Icon into a Button. Drag a Page from the Page Explorer and drop it directly onto the Icon.

## Images

Use Images for machine photos, company logos, or other visual elements.

* **Upload**: Upload your Image file to the [File Explorer](/app-builder/build-backend/file-explorer.md).
* **Place**: Drag the file from the File Explorer and drop it onto the UI Canvas.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.heisenware.com/app-builder/build-frontend/text-icons-and-images.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
