Background texture Help

**Zabon10** · 30 December 2006, 01:23 PM

I'm trying to integrate this image into the BG and I am successful by moving the BG little by little and then saving as a user defined size but I guess my question is....
Q. Will the text always be placed dead center of any BG, having to shift the BG with a defined size it never comes out just the way I would like it?

If this software could somehow place text in a defined area on a specific image size I would just be as giddy as a school boy!

Zabon,

If you place the cursor over the text and then hold down the Alt key you can move the text around the window. Shift+Alt to constrain in the vertical plane, Ctrl+Alt for the horizontal plane.

The obvious way would be to create a Xara3D with the original background and use the word <Scripts> as the text. Now create a static PNG of this. This becomes your new background.

Open a new Xara3D file, import your new background (which includes the words <Scripts> in the bitmap). Now create/import the word Platinum and apply the lighting animation. This will only work on the text not the background, which is the effect you're after.
