    It depends on the software. I know that in Photoshop, you can go to View>Animation> And choose the frame you want, apply the text you want and it should work.

    Actually, my mistake.

    You go to Window on the menu Window>Animation. It'll show you the animation window below with the frames. Just click on the frame and choose the text tool. Then just place the text. That should work.

    There seems to be no solution to your problem yet. So maybe I can help.
    Ok so use the text tool and you will see this in your layers

    It has to be above all the layers for it to be visible the whole time.

    Now to have text for only one frame I type it in and then I manually drag it out of the image.
