Thought
Encloses your text in a comic-book text bubble with a dotted stem.
Stem Angle
Specifies the direction of the text bubble stem. Drag the arrow to adjust
the angle.
Thickness
Specifies the thickness of the text bubble border.
Length
Specifies the length of the text bubble stem.
Fill
Specifies the background color of the text bubble. Click the arrow to
select a color.
Border

color.
Effect Settings Effect
Specifies the effect you want to apply to your text. Each effect has
different options that control its appearance. Drag the sliders to adjust
the appearance of the text.
Drop Shadow Settings Distance
Specifies the distance between the drop shadow and the text. The
higher the value, the farther the shadow and the higher the text
appears.
If a drop shadow is cut off, or has a noticeably sharp edge, you may
need to increase the size of the text rectangle.
Blur
Specifies the amount of blur applied to the drop shadow. Sharp
shadows tend to seem less realistic than those with a slight blur.
Opacity
Specifies the darkness of the drop shadow where it falls on the image.
Angle
Specifies the direction of the imaginary light source that creates the
drop shadow. Drag the arrow to adjust the angle — note that this also
adjusts the shading of the text bevel.
Bevel Settings Bevel
Specifies how much of each letter's edge is bevelled. Higher values give
the text a more rounded, smoother look.
Strength
Specifies the difference between the highest and lowest points on the
text. Higher values heighten the difference between the flat portions of
the text and the bevelled edges.
Elevation
Specifies the height of the imaginary light source that creates the
bevel's shadowed effect. Lower values produce longer shadows on the
text, while a higher value produces a more direct lighting effect and
shorter shadows.
Angle
Specifies the direction of the imaginary light source that creates the
bevel effect. Drag the arrow to adjust the angle — note that this also
adjusts the angle of the drop shadow.
You can right-click a slider to reset to the default value.
