elementContainer
Layout or GroupElement
coord2D
Coordinate2D
text
String

Example
//Create a simple point text element and assign basic symbology and text settings.

//Construct on the worker thread
await QueuedTask.Run(() =>
{
  //Build 2D point geometry
  Coordinate2D coord2D = new Coordinate2D(3.5, 10);

  //Set symbolology, create and add element to layout
  CIMTextSymbol sym = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructTextSymbol(ColorFactory.Instance.RedRGB, 32, "Arial", "Regular");
  string textString = "Point text";
  GraphicElement ptTxtElm = LayoutElementFactory.Instance.CreatePointTextGraphicElement(layout, coord2D, textString, sym);
  ptTxtElm.SetName("New Point Text");

  //Change additional text properties
  ptTxtElm.SetAnchor(Anchor.CenterPoint);
  ptTxtElm.SetX(4.5);
  ptTxtElm.SetY(9.5);
  ptTxtElm.SetRotation(45);
});
