Re: layer with transparent text




Not sure what you mean by 'transparent text'. Usually transparency allows
something to show 'through'.

Perhaps you want to 'punch a hole' in a layer to reveal the under layer as
'fill' for text?

Type and render your text on a layer above the one you want to have the
'hole', then select all the text, make active the layer for the 'hole' and
delete. Then delete or hide the text layer.



Same as usual

1. Create a *transparent* canvas

2. Type or paste whatever to it then the background will be transparent as
it's transparent in the first place.

*If* you already have the canvas done and you do not wish to redo it (and
I would suggest to redo it) then you can go for different method.

1. Double_Click on the layer then set to Transparent .. and now you have
transparent background or canvas

2. Select anything on the layer then DEL it then you will have transparent
background.

And there are several different methods but one is more than enough, two
is a bonus.


'kay, I suggest you guys post something somewhere
displaying a sample of what you suggest to the lady.
Because one makes as little sense as the other.
'Transparent' was what she said.

This is my sample.
