1. Separate text

(1) Why is text separated?

Some operations cannot directly act on text objects, such as filling text with gradient and adjusting the text shape.

The above operations only apply to image objects, so you need to scatter the text so that it has attributes similar to the image.

Note that it is limited to modify the font settings of scattered text, and some of them lose the function of changing the font. Therefore, it is best to ensure that the text content and Its font attributes are correctly set before the split.

(2) Select the text, press Ctrl + B or change-> separate, and then press Ctrl + B to scatter the text into a shape.

At this time, you can think of some options in the Color panel used in the image, such as linear gradient and scene gradient, so that you can make a lot of text effects.

2. Set text links

In the attribute panel, there is an option column, and the options have two attributes: link and target. You can set this item.

3. Text filter (the filter effect does not exist after the text is separated and dispersed)

In the Filter column of the attribute panel, "add?" is displayed in the lower left corner? Filter "button, select the desired filter effect from the pop-up menu

(1) Projection

Width and height of projection -- fuzzy X and fuzzy y

Dark shadow-the intensity value. The larger the shadow, the darker the shadow.

Projection quality-high similarity to Gaussian blur, low to achieve optimal playback performance

Shadow angle-Angle

The text architecture is still in progress, but the text color is no longer available-the empty Function

Inner Shadow-I don't know how this works

Hide objects-only show shadows and hide objects

Color -- set the shadow color

(2) blur filter

Blur width and height-blur X and blur y

Same quality attribute as shadow

(3) luminous

Color -- set the luminous color

Intensity -- set the luminous clarity

Empty mining, quality, fuzzy X, fuzzy y same as above

Inner Light-Apply light in the Object Boundary

(4) corner Filter

Width and height of the angle -- blur X and blur y

Color-shadow and brightening color

Angle-the shadow angle cast by the oblique side (you can try it a few times)

Distance -- the distance from the original text to define the width of the Angle

Other attributes are the same as above.

(5) gradient light filter

The various attribute methods are the same as above. In fact, it is clear to try more on your own.

(6) gradient oblique Filter

Trying each attribute option in person is more important than memorizing

4. Create Hollow text

Objective: To Delete the text filled with the internal color of a text stroke and leave the text composed of the contour of the mural

(1) first write the text in the layer

(2) press Ctrl + B or change-> separate command to separate the text.

(3) press Ctrl + B again to scatter the text into a shape.
