Overlay
The Overlay effect allows you to add an overlay layer to text. This is useful for creating outlines and other effects.
The Overlay
effect in action.
Color: This popup menu lets you choose an existing color for the overlay effect, or choose a new color if required.
Opacity: This slider sets the transparency level of the overlay. The default setting is 75%, and the range is from 0% (completely
transparent) to 100% (completely opaque).
Draw: Choose whether the overlay is drawn solid, or with an outline, or solid and thickened.
Filter: This popup allows you to apply an emboss, blur, or scatter filter to the overlay. See page 163 for filter settings.
Effect filters
There are three filters that can be applied to graphic text with normal and/or overlay effects.
Emboss
Angle / Altitude: Control the angle and height of the “light source” that generates the emboss effect. Changes can be made by clicking and
dragging the control button, or entering numbers in the text fields.
Global: This checkbox, selected by default, ensures that the same angle and height information is used for other global effects on the
current page.
Specular: Controls the percentage of specular highlight. Higher values make the object look smooth and shiny.
Diffuse: Specifies the percentage of diffuse lighting. Higher values make the object look rough or matte.
Blur
The slider controls the amount of blur, from 0 (no blur) to 20 (very blurred).
Scatter
The slider controls the amount of scatter, from 0 (no scatter) to 20 (very scattered).

100%, and the range is from 0% (completely transparent) to 100% (completely opaque).
Shadow effect
The Shadow effect allows you to add a drop shadow to graphic text.
Color: This popup menu lets you choose an existing color for the shadow effect, or choose a new color if required. The default shadow color
is Black.
Opacity: The Opacity slider sets the transparency level of the shadow. The default setting is 75%, and the range is from 0% (completely
transparent) to 100% (completely opaque).
Offset: The slider controls the amount the shadow is offset from the text.
Emboss effect
The Emboss effect allows you to create an embossed appearance for graphic text.
