Look presets
Look presets are visual styles that can be applied to layers with text or vector shapes. They are a great way to create an attractive title quickly when you’re looking for more than basic formatting.
As you hover the pointer over any Look preset thumbnail, a preview of the look appears on your selected layer in the Player panel preview area.
Even if you can’t find exactly the Look you want among the presets, you can often save time by starting with one that’s almost what you want, then tweaking it in the Look Settings area. You can then save your own Look presets in the My Looks category.
To apply a Look preset
1 In the Title panel, click the Text tab to ensure the Text page is displayed.
2 In the Layers list, select a text layer or shape layer that has a vector shape.
3 At the top of the panel, click one of the following Look categories:
• Standard: Includes presets for some popular styles
• Shadow: Includes shadow styles
• Beveled: Includes beveled-edge styles
• Outlined: Includes a variety of edge and glow styles
• My Looks: When you save a custom Look, it is available here.
4 Position your pointer over any of the thumbnails within the selected category to preview the Look in the Player panel.
5 Click a thumbnail to apply the corresponding Look.
6 If you want to adjust the preset, modify the settings you want in the Look Settings area.
Note: You can save your customized Look by typing a name for the Look in the text field under Look Settings, and clicking the Save Look button to the right of the text field.
