Hi all,
I've discovered that I can create bevel, drop shadow and colour effects on text. This is quite similar to what I've been doing in Photoshop Elements and is quite satisfactory I don't like using PE because I can't easily save the 'styles'. I can't manipulate other 'styles' I've downloaded - PE is hobbled, compared to PS. In any case, why use those programs when the effects can be created in Xara Photo & Design X10

In Paint Shop Pro, for example, I save the info about the effects I've applied to text, in a notebook file, so that I can use it again, supposing I want to change the text message. At the moment, that is also what I'm doing in Xara, until I'm able to find a solution?

I am wondering if I can save the combined bevel, drop-shadow and colour effect, so that I can simply apply it to some other text at some time in the future, if I want to. It would be so much easier to be able to do that, than to open the notebook file I've saved with that info on it.

Thanks for any help,
Calcat
