You are able to pan/shift and resize the Background layer in the text. With the layer selected click on the text and move your mouse around. To edit the Background layer, click the layer to select it. Step 5 - Resize and reposition Background layer Click on the white arrow next to the Text layer to open and view the Background layer. The watercolor background has been placed beneath the Text layer as a Child or attached layer. But when doing so we need to drag the mouse over the name of the layer and not the thumbnail. We need to click and drag the Background layer onto the Text layer. The background will be placed above the text.Ĭreating a clipping mask of the design onto the font is easy but where you place the design layer is important. Go back to the document containing your text, right click anywhere and select Paste. Once opened, click Edit at the top of the screen and select Copy. Start by clicking on File, select Open and locate where your file is stored. We will be using a textured watercolor background in this step. Step 3 - Copy and paste a background design With the text still selected, choose a font. Now type out your text.Ī new pixel layer with the text is automatically created.Īt the top left of the page is the Font Family selection. Click and drag the Text Tool out anywhere on the workspace/canvas area. If you see a box frame with the letter T, click on the little white arrow next to it to open the menu. Select the Artistic Text Tool that looks like a capital A on the left side panel.
Step 2 - Type out your text and choose a font A welcome page will load automatically, select New Document. Step 1 - Create a New Document in Affinity DesignerĬlick on Affinity Designer to open it. This Child layer can still be edited by resizing, panning/repositioning, adding adjustment layers and more.
Once you have clipped an image/object to the Font layer it becomes a Child layer. Bold fonts work very well with Clipping masks as there is more visual space for adding images/objects.
