Digital Workshop

Please remind me.... if I've got a text box with a background, how do I still get a shadow on the text rather than on the box?

I usually deal with text as a separate entity (shadow, etc.) and put it in a frame if I need a background. I haven't ever been able to add shadow to text with a background.

Select the text object (or just the words you want) and bring up the Font properties (right click or the Text menu). Check the shadow option and set a colour.

Well, you learn something every day.

Thanks, Duncan
