How to Create Shadow Effects?
|
-
There's no "shadow" style, you can do the following:
- Enter text mode and draw a string. Type <Cntrl>e to get out of
text mode and into the select mode (the text will be selected).
- Turn snap on from the Layout Menu if you don't have it turned on
already (typing <Meta><Cntrl>g toggles this setting).
- Duplicate the text by typing <Cntrl>d (or select Duplicate() from
the Edit Menu). Move the new text to exactly overlap the original
one by hitting the up-arrow key ane left-arrow key once.
- Select the desire color from the Color Menu.
- Turn snap off (or type <Meta><Cntrl>g).
- Move the text to the "shadow" position by hitting the right-arrow key
twice and down-arrow key twice.
- Select Back() from the Arrange Menu (or type <Cntrl>b) to move the
shadow behind the real text.
- Turn snap on (or type <Meta><Cntrl>g).
