jetsflier Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Okay, I cant figure out what I'm doing wrong. I'm trying to make airline liveries using this program, but whenever I try to place text, it hides behind the fuselage. I've tried: Putting it to the TOP layer I'm pretty sure nothing is selected. All I have is a pink background with the aircraft in front of it, and when I try to type text, and Drag it down onto the fuselage, it slowly disappears as I drag it "into" the fuselage. Please help, I've been trying this for hours with no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Hello and welcome jetsflier Sounds like your text layer is lower that the fuselage layer in the Layers Window. You could try ADDing a new layer specifically for the text. Look for this icon in the Layers Window :AddNewLayer: If necessary, move the text/new layer to the top of the list in the Layers Window. To do this highlight the layer (by clicking on it in the Layers Window) and use the :MoveLayerUp: or :MoveLayerDown: icons in the Layers Window.

jetsflier Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share Posted December 17, 2012 I've done that. However, should it matter that the pink background, along with the aircraft are in the same layer? Should I change that? But like I said, the text shows up on the pink, but hides BEHIND the fuselage and the rest of the aircraft specifically. ~Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsflier Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share Posted December 17, 2012 (edited) Okay, here's a print screen of what I'm dealing with. Let me know of any fixes. It won't let me paste the IMG and uploading it won't work. Here's a direct link. http://i1127.photobucket.com/albums/l629/jetsflier/See_zps61e52f24.png Edited December 17, 2012 by jetsflier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
