This workstation is running gimp-2.8.18 (the most current version supported
by this OS version.)

I want to edit a text layer and find that what should work doesn't. In the
layers box I select the one with the text to be edited and right-click on
it. The layer menu pops up and the second item is 'Edit layer attributes.'

Clicking on that shows the layer name; I assumed that was the text in the
layer, but apparently that's not the case. When I change the layer name the
text on the image remains the same. The enclosing layer has only the name,
too.

There's a tutorial for this on the web which is what I followed; it's for
the current version. The tutorial points to a Layer properties item, not
Edit layer attributes, so it didn't help me.

Suggestions?
