I was just wondering how to make text into a semi-circle. Like if I'm trying to make a logo like the US presidencial seals and want text around the outside of a circle. I tried using the warp features but it wouldn't work.

How to do that semi transparent text box in grey ?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI've gone to create a new shape layer or text layer, it appears like it's at 50% opacity. I've checked my layer settings, and they're all at 100% fill and opacity. I can't see any reason why they'd be semi-transparent, and none of the settings I've tried have changed anything. I've even tried deleting the shapes/text, saving my document, and starting over. That worked one time, but this time it's not working.
Even applying a color overlay still results in a semi-transparent shape.I am in the middle of doing a design for a client, for print, and I really can't be dealing with this right now.
I am kind of new but can paste , copy things .
I am trying to add some text onto a semi-transparent box , onto a Gif .
Using a script called - animstack - I managed to get the text in all the 180 layers but without the semi-transparent box .
Animstack is a script/app which automates due processes.
how to work with Animstack. I also have GAP installed.
Using Gimp 2.8 portable.
How do I get started creating semi-transparent text? What I am looking for is text which you can "see through" the reduced color (not text which is bordered and otherwise entirely "see through".
I have got as far as creating some text in a document.
I looked on Google and it pointed me at the Layers menu and then "opacity" which I don't have on 2.8, so I guessed "transparency". It won't let me "Add alpha channel" (which I thought I had to do) so I made the text colored (which I want in the end anyway) and tried "Color to Alpha" but no matter what I do I can't change it in any way with the dialog boxes that open. Which Means I may be chasing the wrong dialog box anyway, but although the labels are very good, the terminology means nothing to me.
In the end I want to be able to create a series of short phrases and have them overlapping in a text design, being able to "see through" the overlap to some degree.
On the image of the slider of my Homepage I want a semi transparent box to appear and then after a few seconds some text will appear on the semi transparent box. The text and the semi transparent text box are on different layers. I found a tutorial on a website and followed the instructions.I created a rectangle with the sizes I need and then:
Colour > Colours to Alpha > Left Click on the pop up box that appeared > Left Click on the Colour to Alpha Colour Picker > Click on the colour I want to make transparent > Export as .png
What I got is indeed a semi transparent foreground text box to place my text on but it is too dark (Pic.01). I would like it to be light semi transparent like in Pic.02 on the right(Avada 3: The Best Yet)
How do I change the transparency level / Opacity of the foreground text box? I changed the Opacity to 50% on my second try but I did not see any visible change.
Now, with that task simplified, I'm not sure how to change the color of the text created using this tool.

I follow the tutorial in the Xara Help, but cannot get the results shown. I draw the circle, compose the text, and set it to the middle Select both circle and text Arrange/Fit Text to Curve....the text appears around the lower, right side of the cirle After all this I am unable to manipulate the text (It's a piece of cake to do this in Publisher 2010, but it has some minor problems in appearance)
I created the image below (mostly using a photoshop template I downloaded), but I created the outside text on my own, which I'm having a problem aligning properly. If you notice in the below image, the outside text alignment looks bad.
For the current version below, I used the Warp Text -> Arc tool, but it seems like that tool can't arc beyond a half circle, so I created 2 Arc'd text items and tried pushing them together, which creates the bad alignment you see. Is there any way to create text in a perfect circle in photoshop (or any other adobe product)?
I am using Photoshop Elements (version 4) and I am working with text around a circle. I downloaded a premade text-on-a-path file made by someone with the full Photoshop and it works almost perfectly for what I need. The problem I have is that the text goes upside-down at the bottom of the circle, so how to make a file with the text right-side up at the bottom of the circle. This would make the text upside-down at the top of the circle, but that's fine as I will just use two separate text layers (one for the top and one for the bottom). I've included a quick mock-up of what I'm hoping to have, made with PSE's "Warp text" option which looks messy. I've also attached the psd file I'm using for the top of the circle. (I can't post links yet so they are attached).

Basically, I have a text and I want it to "circulate" around a certain point, with perspective and readability as demonstrated on the picture.
I have a White Circle with a very thick black outline/border. Thick enough to write TEXT.
My exact words:
"Heart of a Lion. Mind of a Panther."
When I **ARC** this text, or any small phrase of it (like "heart of a lion" only), it will never bend the right way to fit into my black circular outline/border.
I'm aware that you can print text along a line. I was just wondering if I missed an even easier option for when I want to print around in a circle.
I'm trying to prepare a picture to print onto a DVD. Since the picture was for a cruise around Australia I thought it might be an idea to just print in a circle? Perhaps have text arch up at top & down at bottom?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm using pse 11 right now. I've got a decent handle on text on shape tool. But I can't figure out how to get text inside a circle. (as opposed to around the outside) I've seen a couple tutorials that reference a little black arrow to move selections (I think within the Text tool menu) , and change orientation of text. I can't see this anywhere. I'm sure there is a simple solution, but I can't figure this one out.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhenever I click to add text to this path, it starts the text at a different point on the path instead of directly where I clicked. If you can see it, towards the left side of the circle where it says "path" in green. Thats where I clicked, but as you can see the actual text would start a little further on the right side
How can I change this...Also I will add. Once I do type my text it is no longer selectable. After typing I switch up to my direct select tool, and as I hover over the text nothing happens. I cant select it, I can only select the blue bars on the sides of it. I want to be able to select my text also. Shouldnt the blue bars be at the end and the beginning of the text, not so far away from it
