PSP 7-9: Creating Text as Shapes - Applying an Inner Bevel
To apply effects and filters in PSP, use options from the Effects menu. An inner bevel is a 3D effect.
- Click Effects > 3D Effects > Inner Bevel. The Inner Bevel dialog box appears.
- Click OK to the Auto Actions dialog if it appears. This promotes the selection to a full layer.
- Adjust Bevel settings on this dialog box to:
- Bevel: 1
- Width:8 (or so)
- Adjust Image settings on this dialog box to:
- Smoothness: 0
- Depth:2
- Ambience: 0
- Shininess: 0
- Adjust Light settings on this dialog box to:
- Color: White
- Angle: 315
- Intensity: 50
- Elevation: 30.
You can change some of these settings to vary the effect. The settings above are the ones I used to create my image.
- Click OK to close the dialog box and apply the inner bevel to text and rectangle.
- If the selection remains on the image, remove it (Selections > Select None)
- If there are 3 layers, remove the Vector layer. To do this:
- In the Layers palette, right- click on Vector 1
- Select Delete from the shortcut menu that appears.
