Transform: This allows you to skew the shape with a horizontal or vertical slant, and/or rotate your shape up to 360 degrees.
Opacity: On a scale of 0-100% set the transparency of your text layer. 0% will be completely transparent, 100% will be completely solid.
Rounded Corners: If you chose rectangle as your main shape, you can select to round individual corners.
Background Color: Choose whether you want the background color to be solid or a gradient. If gradient option is selected you can set the degree you want the gradient change to happen (180 is top to bottom, 90 is left to right).
Background Image: You can also select an image from your media library to add to your shape. Once the image is selected you can select whether you want the image to fill the entire space (and potentially crop parts of the image), or fit the image to the shape. TIP: This is a great option to contain an image to a specific size, shape, or space!
Border: Checking this box drops a border around your shape. You can adjust the width (pixels) of the border and color.
Shadow: checking this box will give your shape a drop shadow.
- X: Adjust the shadow on the horizontal axis, left and right.
- Y: Adjust the shadow on the vertical axis, up and down.
- Blur: Adjust how harsh or feathered you want your shadow to be.
- Spread: Adjust the width of your shadow
- Color: Set the color of your text shadow
Blur image: If you don't want your shape to be crystal clear you can increase the number to gradually increase the blur.
