Zero Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Hi folks, I'm wondering if anyone knows how I might be able to create a text effect where the text appears to be pushing up threw the surface of the canvas - the result of which would (hopefully) look like raised text on the surface itself. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
007 Nab Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Try typing your text just normally onto the canvas and then running the Bevel or edge detect effect (In the effects menu under Stylize) Quote "pyrochild, you're my favorite person ever.

Urnemanden Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 For some reason your Selection -> Bevel suggestion doesn't work with the latest Paint.NET v. 3.5 beta release, Boltbait. I don't know if you aleready knew, I just wanted to inform you about that. Quote About - Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowman Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 If you mean distorting the canvas to take the shape of the text, them Alpha-Displacement works great for this. Quote My GalleryMy YouTube Channel "PDN Tutorials" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
