View 6 RepliesOther than the cover template, there doesn't seem to be any page template that allows you to put type directly over a photo -- which can be a useful graphic technique. I know I could do it in Photoshop, and import it into Lightroom, but that wouldn't allow for easy chages in text type or color, etc. and would be an interruption of the book module's workflow. It would be nice to be able to add a text box to a page. Can it now be done and I just haven't found the way?

Text nexer is visible on the photo Background image. If the edited image is saved, the added typed text is not saved; only the original Background image. How do I reset the Text Tool so it will be functional?

Am trying to build a collection of photo-editing tips on the Xara-Users forum -- [removed link -link broken and or requires membership to view]
Xara's a LOT easier to use than Photoshop. But it is different. I know Xara's really for vector artwork, but when you end up using it more and more for photo editing, it's useful to have a bunch of techniques in one place.

I was excited about the book module's "Save as Custom Page" as a solution to preview book we have our lab produce but it seems that several settings are not saved. My intention is for the file name to be under each image but the "Photo Text" checkbox does not stay enabled. Nor, do the zoom settings for the images boxes.
Does "save as custom page" only remember paddding settings and ignore everything else?
I'm doing a presentation of various photos and I'd like to include a different text overlay in each one. However, LR only seems to allow me to apply one caption to all the photos. How can I have a different caption on each photo?

View 2 Replies View RelatedThis may sound like a simple question for heavy users, but I just got started. I have all my edits completed, splices with transitions, etc. and decided to attach a photo from the available stock to the front of the timeline. I was successful at this, but when I try to expand the timeframe of that photo - pull it to the right to make it longer, it won't budge and is stuck at the given length when I dropped it in. Even at the control panel, I can't lengthen the time. The same happens at the end. I drag in a photo with the idea of adding titles to the end but I can't drag the photo to the right to lengthen the time. Is there something I'm missing?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI think I may have made a big error. While adding text and applying (experimenting) various "Effects" with the text, I used the garbage can icon to remove the "Effect", thinking it is going to remove the 'Effect" from the text, until I realized I had to remove the "Effect" with the edit button, not the garbage can. Have I now permanently removed the various "Effects" permanently or just off the screen? How do I regain them back onto the menu column? How many "Effects" should be visible in order to have the complete set? This was my first experiment with the lettering effects and hope I haven't lost them forever.

The text cursor disappears when I try to enter it into the rectangle and when I place it on the edge of the rectangle, it rurns into a slanted "A" and allows texting on the border of the rectangle.

When looking at the properties the text is NOT shown as upside down or backward and my text style is set to Standard and has not changed. This problem is isolated to the current drawing. If I open a new drawing text is entered correctly.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have yet another question. I can see the text in a text frame with a script like this,
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var myTextFrames = doc.textFrames[0];
var myTF_Content = myTextFrames.contents; // this will return the string inside the text frame
alert(myTF_Content);
but how do I add some text to the beginning of that text? lets say that this is my textFrame[0] = "this is a simple test string".what is the proper way to add text like the number one and a period to the beginning?
Not sure if ths is the right place to post this...or this forum is just for tech questions. But the Mac guys told me to come over here... because, uh, there's nobody there.
I need some design advice / inspiration. I have an intermediate knowledge of photoshop...just limited talent! (I can do layers, do masking, and some other stuff)
I have a 70-yr old B&W photo of my Mom from when she was just 3 or 4. For a 4x6 party invitation I would like to add some subtle Tiffany-blue turquoise highlights to the picture. (maybe make the bow Tiffany blue, part of the dress, a border....this is where I need the inspiration).
I have about 20 or 30 photos of my daughters with Disney characters. I also have a coordinating autogrpah in their autograph books...
I was thinking it would be cool to somehow scan the b&W autograph and incorporate it with the photo....
I'm making a quick and dirty web photo gallery of some tennis pictures.
I have one questions (Photoshop CS3):
1) Is there some easy and quick way of adding some simple navigation to it? I want to add the following links:
1st singles
2nd singles
1st doubles
2nd doubles
3rd doubles
Is there some way of adding links in Web Photo Gallery, or should I just slap some links in with a text editor?
Is there a way to add a "photo frame" to a picture? Like, is there a library or set of frames that can be used on the edges of pictures in a simple click or two?
I am wanting "pretty" frames for adding photos to printed coffee mugs etc.
