Use the Text tab to add an inscription or a signature to your painting.
Text tab
Type the text into the field (max 250 characters). By default the parameters of the tab are disabled; for the inscription to appear on the image, you should enable the check-box Use Text.
There are three groups of parameters:
Font.
The drop-down list Family contains a set of system fonts that can be used when typing the text.
The Size parameter (10-100) sets the size of the characters.
The Stretch parameter (50%-200%) tightens or stretches the text by changing the character interval.
The buttons I and B apply the italic and bold fonts accordingly.
Color.
The current color is shown on the color plate Text. To change the color, click on the plate and select a new color from the Select Color dialog box.
The outer color of the characters is shown on the Outline color plate. To change the color, click on the plate and select a new color from the Select Color dialog box. To delete a color and clear the color plate, right-click on it.
The Glow (0-10) parameter sets the glow strength, that is the width and the brightness of the outline.
Without Glow
Glow = 10
Location.
Use the 8 green arrows to define the position of the inscription. You can move the text to any side and align it with the diagonal arrows.
