Input Text and Vector Shapes

Text and vector images (shapes) are what you can edit in the program. The Input panel toggles between Text panel and Vector Shapes panel by clicking the arrow in the corner.

Text Panel

The Text panel has an edit box and text formatting controls. You can type text from scratch and format it before applying effects.

Another possibility is to copy text from other program. Pasted text will preserve its original formatting.

Art Text supports multi-line text.

Vector Shapes Panel

The program is supplied with a collection of vector images shown on the Vector Shapes panel.

You can load your own image as well. For this, drag the graphic file from Finder into the box or click the Load Custom button and specify the path. Note, the Transformation effect does not work with custom images.
