Very nice and useful. Explained in a way that everybody can understand. Small tip: Cmd+Shift+< or > changes the size of a font down or up, respectively. And this is working in ID, PS, AI.
The rectangle where not perfectly centered because when you draw a default rectangle there's a 1pt stroke around and in indesign when you inverse the color from the stroke and the filling it will fill the rectangle but only in the inside of the previous stroke and not replace it ! so when you do that the second rectangle will actually be smaller than the first one you drew!
I know this is an old video. But the character and paragraph controls can still be on top if your control window is on. It should be on by default. Once you place your text box and start typing, you'll see the control panel change with the left two buttons being character controls like fonts and size, and the other button is the paragraph controls.
If u double click the text box from bottom it will will resize to fit the text. It's a quicker way compared to goin to menu and choosing fitting options
Great video thank you, great skill to learn have not practiced it yet but a great skill for poster design or advertising as at large scale grabs attention because of the juxtaposition of txt and image.
I get why you moved the world so the A is in the centre. There is a difference between something being mathematically centred and something being visually centred.
make sure the blue form and the text are not grouped also make sure you have clicked first on the text (and its thext which is being selected) and then with shift on the blue shape (and again make sure that the blue shape is being selected / and the 2 arent grouped) then do the exclude part i had the same thing happening to me for a good 5 min but thanfully i figgured it out
When I go to Pathfinder- all of my options are greyed out. I've created outlines and have everything selected- I can't figure out why that's happening.
Hey guys, i'm trying to do the pathfinder option with a paragraph of text (i have converted to outlines) over a shape. Indesign doesn't let me click the extrude option or any of the other options. Does anyone know the reason for this? It works when I write a title or just a couple of words but not a 4-5 line paragraph.
you're such a great teacher but try not to be perfectionist that only make things worst.i'd be very happy if you upload some indesign or photoshop techniques in architecture.thanks bro!!
Is there a easy way to do a similar option of this with a AI/Vector file that is an outline logo/text? I have a file that is a logo (the logo is just a word, but as a AI file not as text) and do the same thing? I cannot seem to do that.
Hi guys, I have a problem with the manipulation , each time that I am doing the PATHFINDER then the EXCLUDE OVERLAP, my word LEARN move to the up left of the doc and this side of the page is totally white.... Does anyone know what I am doing wrong, please?? I don't manage to find any answer on the net. Thanks a lot!
nvm i figured it out, and for anyone wanting to know just extend the image across the entire page and then drop it behind with "command" "shift" "[" on mac not sure about windows
question: how come after I create outline for the text and hold shift click a box, the pathfinder doesnt show options? All greyed out. i also tried another way where after i create outline, i ungroup the text and did the hold-shift click box, the pathfinder appears but after i select the exclude overlap, an error message: could not complete operation, pathfinder results describe empty region
I downloaded an image from Unsplash, got to the part when you go file; place; then make sure the replace selected item, and there was no replace selected item check box. there was a replace check box but it was not able to select that box. anyone know why?
Hey Paul, I typically always use shortcuts. However for video tutorials, sometimes people watching can get lost with what just happening if it's too quick, so I like to show the original location in the menu, and then they can view the shortcut command for themselves :)
Convert the image to 16bits , make duplicate layer, apply gaussian blur or surface blur, add inverted layer mask, paint the banding out with a white brush on the layer mask, covert back to 8bits
This is destructive; the parts of the text that are "see through" no longer exist. How do you cut a shape from another NON-DESTRUCTIVELY; i.e., wherever I move a rectangle over another object, it just clears or masks out the object that's underneath?
You don't need to outline the text for this. Just hold "alt" when you click intersect in the pathfinder window. That way you can stay non-destructive. Huzzah.
@@stevieh59 Hmm. Not sure. Did you have more than two objects selected by chance? Are you sure you're clicking it from the pathfinder panel (not the pull-down menu, as shown in the video)
It's fairly easy in Photoshop. ---- Type your text > Right mouse click this text layer and click Rasterize Type> Create new layer atop the text layer> Place your image in that layer>Right mouse>click Create Clipping Mask.
And actually what you want to do, spexially with this kind of thing is, you do the whole illustration and imagery part of it in photoshop, and when you need to add text, indesign

Nifty trick, thanks for sharing Zoran! 😃
You are the best Dansky!
The pathfinder is a powerful little tool. It can make swiss cheese or even create a road map. And expanding a stroke is a cool thing too.
That's Mount Fishtail from Nepal, Pokhara. Love from Nepal❤️
this is the best tutorial video ever
Finally............ Got to see InDesing in your channel. Looking forward to see more in near future. Thanks 👍
Love your tuts, so helpful. Thanks a lot, Dan
You’re most welcome Salvatore 😊
Bless u man...

Your tutorial is the best !!
WOW WOW WOW!!! LOVE IT! :)
Wow! Thank you for this!
I think I'm in love ! 😍

i hate that so much! i use ID every day and this causes me pain every time i draw a shape.
@@cxcevents I feel You!!
@@playeurz why not work on the fill and stroke first before you draw! that will work ;)
@@trifaymang1 yeah I know ! that's what I do now :p but that's just a weird thing only in indd and not in illustrator !
fabulous as usual
Thank you Dansky im learning indesign because of you.
Awesome awesome stuff, man. Thank you so much!!
Excellent tuto, thank you.

Brilliant! Thanks 🙏🏻

Great video thank you, great skill to learn have not practiced it yet but a great skill for poster design or advertising as at large scale grabs attention because of the juxtaposition of txt and image.
very helpful. Thanks

cool! great work of showing this as am just learing the basics indesign. cheers
Thank You!
Wonderful... Thanks for teaching great stuffs....
I get why you moved the world so the A is in the centre. There is a difference between something being mathematically centred and something being visually centred.
This was great, thank you!
My man you awesome

really nice video.
cool technique, thanks, Is there a quick way to do the same in Illustrator?
I have my text outlined, and left box and text selected. When I go to exclude the overlap it is greyed out. Any idea why?
same problem :-(
first create outlines!
make sure the blue form and the text are not grouped also make sure you have clicked first on the text (and its thext which is being selected) and then with shift on the blue shape (and again make sure that the blue shape is being selected / and the 2 arent grouped) then do the exclude part i had the same thing happening to me for a good 5 min but thanfully i figgured it out
@@gadogarmast He just said he already did that
Awesome
it would look so cool if you put the mountain on the A
HEllo, thenk u very much. I'm in love.
I have a question plz: can i add this (my final work, of course) on my portfolio ?

How can you do this same effect on Photoshop? Looks dope!
neat tricks! Will try to combine with the verticle text and see how that turns out :-)
Awesome Yan :)
Can this design be done in illustrator also?if it possible please make a video of it.thank you.
its literally the same process.
Great video Dan, very interesting, I also like the song played at the end, pls what's the name and musician of the song?
Hi, Thanks for the tutorial. Is there a way to do the place an image stage in CC illustrator?
you're such a great teacher but try not to be perfectionist that only make things worst.i'd be very happy if you upload some indesign or photoshop techniques in architecture.thanks bro!!
I'll probably not get an answer but still, when I opened my soft Roll I couldn't place the "notes" or however you call them that finely, by
Where could we get this Kaji font?
I wonder is there a way to achieve this effect with CSS?
perfect can it work in illustrator as well the trick.
when upping youro font size, old shift and the font size will increase in 10's
Is there a easy way to do a similar option of this with a AI/Vector file that is an outline logo/text? I have a file that is a logo (the logo is just a word, but as a AI file not as text) and do the same thing? I cannot seem to do that.

Hello,
I subscribed to Adobe and I can not find the Kanji_PA Font from Font TK?
Would you help me find it? Thanks a lot
Hello, can you tell me what are the specs of your mac? I’ve installed indesign on mine but its laggy...
the exclude overlap is greyed out for me. i'm just wondering if you would know how to fix that?
I'm stuck on that too
Bro u looks like 'ME' but I would say " Nice video "
That is coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
Can this also be applied to a PNG file instead of Text? It only seems to work on Text.
I JUST NOTICED HIS LIGHTING Lol
WOOB 😂
와 이 효과 찾으려고 진짜 많이 뒤져봤다..
But its not a mask - its just a complex shape that you cutout. How do you move and work with the mask??
is there anyway that u can do the same thing to the text on the other side?
nvm i figured it out, and for anyone wanting to know just extend the image across the entire page and then drop it behind with "command" "shift" "[" on mac not sure about windows
I have designed but when I want to send it to m phone doesn't work, can anyone help me please ?

Hi yes I have the same problem??
After hitting Exclude Overlap ; the texts jumps to another position, whats causing that?
had the same issue too!
Same for me, did you find the reason by any chance?!
How to find out or mak the kind of word that you use on ?
Why wouldn't it let me use Exclude overlap? When I try it's not clickable...
Is this also possible in Illustrator?
👍🏻👍🏻
I downloaded an image from Unsplash, got to the part when you go file; place; then make sure the replace selected item, and there was no replace selected item check box. there was a replace check box but it was not able to select that box. anyone know why?
You didn't have anything selected at the time.
just out of curiosity ... why are you not using keyboard shortcuts for send to back, bring to front, create outlines etc? Great video though.
Hey Paul, I typically always use shortcuts. However for video tutorials, sometimes people watching can get lost with what just happening if it's too quick, so I like to show the original location in the menu, and then they can view the shortcut command for themselves :)
I am not sure. But its called 'Text Overlay'
Could you help to fix gradient banding in photoshop nd illustrator
what do you mean by banding ?
Convert the image to 16bits , make duplicate layer, apply gaussian blur or surface blur, add inverted layer mask, paint the banding out with a white brush on the layer mask, covert back to 8bits
