Font Effects give you the ability to add curves to text in a field on your template. The effects can be used on both Form and Interactive Designer templates and also give you the ability to add a drop shadow and outline to the curved text. There are six effects to choose from including: Bridge, Bulge, Pinch, Roof, Round and Valley. You can give your customer the ability to select a font effect or you can require that a certain effect type is applied to the text.
The drop shadow allows you to change Size, Opacity and Horizontal and Vertical Offset.
Font Effects can only be used on Text Fields and will always use the User Control Type of Text Box (Data Capture Tab). Each field is set to do one line of text using the font effect, different lines will require different fields. To turn on Font Effects go to the field you want it for and click into the Format tab. On the Format tab there is a selection for Font Effect, selecting none will turn it off and then each style is demonstrated in the drop down. Choose which one you would like for the field. Once you have selected the Font Effect you can set the Intensity of the effect on the text in the Intensity drop down.
You'll also have a new Shadow section added to the Format tab. Click the Enabled box to turn on the shadow. Then set the following settings:
You can also set an outline to the font effect. This is also set in the format tab. Select the enabled box to turn on the outline.
Setting up the format tab for the Font Effects is the same as for forms based templates. Font Effects gives two additional Rules on the Rules tab that may be set for the end user.
