CD Label Tutorial |
| In the Objects palette, on the right side of the Layers section bar is the layers menu icon (circled in red)(11). Click on it to access the menu and choose the Drop and Select option (11a). Click once inside the selection using the Layer Adjuster tool to turn it back into a layer. Deselect this layer. Press the Ctrl + A keys to select the entire canvas. On the program task bar click on Edit > Clear. Press the Ctrl + D keys to deselect the canvas. You should have something that looks like this (12). Save the file as CD_3. |

| In the next few steps we will add all the text to our label. Read Chapter 15 ‘ Working with Text’ in the Painter 6 Users Guide for a better understanding of how use text in your projects. In the Objects palette expand the Dynamic Layers section and click on the D TEXT icon (13), and drag (tear off) a new Custom palette (14). If we were using this palette once there would be no reason to do this, but we will use it 5 or 6 times before we are done. Close the Dynamic Layers section. Double click on the D TEXT icon and the Dynamic Text dialog box appears. |
