jldesign Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I am switching over from AI, and cannot figure out how to make my font a vector object - then make it a compound path, so that I can apply a gold gradient style? I'm trying to learn, but so new still, I can't figure out how to adjust the styles either, is that possible? Thanks! JL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gremriel Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Control+Enter converts the text to curves, and then you can use either the Fill Tool or use the Gold styles in the Styles Panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarryP Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Welcome to the forums. You don’t need to convert the text to curves just to give it a gradient fill or apply a Style. You don’t say which Affinity application you are using but I’ve attached a short video showing how to apply a gradient fill to text in Designer. This is just one way and there are many others. You can’t modify a Style, but you can add your own new versions. 2020-04-04_08-30-13.mp4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
