MuseScore 4.2.0 - How to edit text properties?

The handbook says to 1) select the text, 2) right-click to select Text Properties, and 3) I should see a dialogue box where I can change the color, etc.
But when I right-click and open the text properties panel, all I see is swing properties (see attached). How do I simply change the color of selected text?

I know about text styles, but it looks like that's a hot mess right now. I'm short on time and I'm not an expert with MuseScore.
