I presume you can not clip a group.  I can not work this one out by myself.  I have 4 letters and each letter needs to stay on its own layer, that is how I made them.  I made a texture to cover the 4 letters so that it can be clipped.  Obviously I can copy the texture 4 times' and then clip each letter seperately, is this the only way?

Then looking for the dishwasher and finding it stored in the living room where you have to download a water supply from the app store, then you have to buy microsoft compliant soap, remove the carpet only to be told that it is glued to the floor.. Don't forget to make multiple copies of your front door key and post them to all who demand access to all the doors inside your home including the windows and outside shed.

Apple - Like entering your home and opening the oak framed Kitchen door and finding the dishwasher right in front you ready to be switched on, soap supplied, and water that comes through a water softener.  Ah the front door key is yours and it only needs to open the front door.

Not sure if this is what you want, group your letters and then clip the texture using the group. You will have textured letters.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Don't believe it - I'm an idiot, of course.  I was moving the texture to the clipping place on the grouped letter layers, I should have moved the groupede letters insted.  Thanks Old Bruce..

 

EDIT:  Except that has now defeated my original reason for having the letters on seperate layers.  I can not manipulate the texture now, plus the letters are all one layer.  I suppose  will have to copy the texture four times and clip that individually to each letter layer.  But thanks Bruce anyway.

No when letters are grouped you can use the fill/gradient tool to apply a bitmap fill so you can adjust items(letters) separately.

No that did not work.  I can move the letters ONLY as a group around the underlying Texture fill.  What I am wishing to maintain is to be able to move each individual letter by itself and be able to move each of the letter's underlying texture independently so that both the individual letters and the same single texture can be moved independently from each other.  Easy when I make duplicates of the texture and clip them individually, no problem.   Thankyou for the input Haakoo.

Maybe this will give you some pointers

What can I say Haakoo?  Thankyou.  I watched a number of videos about clipping and textures etc and font manipulation within this context and this is exactly what I am looking for. Spot on.
