@@aerofxunme It's all good. I am suffering from a progressive neural muscular disease and lately it has played up, draining energy, making it harder to control the chronic neural pain, and increasingly deformed my hands due to wasting muscles. At the moment, I try to focus on getting back onto stable ground, recharge, recover, and regain control over the pains and aches. I hope to be back soon!
I was born with it. It's my normal... and no there is no cure for it. But hey, it's a little like playing the game of life in 'hard mode' with some added challenges. ;)
I kinda knew about this but I wonder how would this all work with bitmap fills? I have trouble with making them fit the applied text proportionately. They're always skewed and I always have to adjust it to any text that I apply the style to.
Sorry, as far as I know, the bitmap patterns are not auto-adjusting [to height, width, or orientation to match the initial design/ style]. I wish I knew a way around it.
I just tried different fonts on the same text in that layer to see what works for the style I am after. It has no use in the design process after I pick the font/ word combination I like.
I got quite a lot of text effects and etc libraries in Illustrator. I wish I could transfer those to affinity to make the switch once for once.How do I save these styles after I make them in Affinity to be reused later?
You can try and open the files in Affinity Designer but most likely a lot of functions and effects are missing or handled differently between the two tools and the results might not be ideal. As for saving, seeing they are stacked effects and not just a single layer with one set of effects [which could be saved as a style] in my opinion, it's easiest to make a simple text and save each style as a separate file [in a dedicated sub-folder].
Yes... but you can't create symbols in photo - which make them easier to edit. You would need to work with duplicated text - editing each text separately. Importing the Affinity Designer files work fine though - as symbols are support [just can't be created as far as I know].
@@2dgameartguru do you sell designs on microstock sites? if you do, are there any trick effects that are accepted on microstock sites? if not, do you have any youtube channel recommendations?
I don't sell... I give my stuff away for free... I had to retire due to progressive health issues and all I do now is for fun and fun only. Sorry, I don't watch any youtube channels - I just make videos and help beginners on social media.
It's an intermediate tutorial which requires some knowledge of the tool and it's functions [especially the fx and grouping and stacking them]. Download the files [link in the description] and check them out. Which part(s) don't you understand?
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the wealth of knowledge you're sharing. Please continue.
Thank you, I will... I am just having a bad run with progressive health issues ;(
@@2dgameartguruI'm sorry to hear that, here's wishing to get well soon. If there's anything we can do for you please don't hesitate to ask.

Thanks Chris when I have time I’ll try and replicate it on the iPad… when I have time 😢. Tutorial is much appreciated!
You are welcome! Let me know how it goes. Sadly I couldn't test on the ipad after mine died and a new one currently is not in the budget.
Is this chris in affinity facebook page? thanks a lot man you help me a lot in my journey with affinity!
Yes. This is my channel. :) I am glad I could help!
Nice Text effects! thanks Chris
You are welcome! I am glad you like them!
Great technique !
One thing i noticed is, you dont seem to use the Depth slider on the Bevel FX. Any specific reason ?
Probably because it's locked by default... I will play with it in the next video. ;)
wow this videos gonna come in so handy thanks a lot!
Glad to hear it!
Really nice, thanks for the video.

This inspired me! Thank you Chris👍🏻
Fantastic! That's the plan... mission accomplished! Good luck!
One question, what is that font layer and how is it used?
I just tried different fonts on the same text in that layer to see what works for the style I am after. It has no use in the design process after I pick the font/ word combination I like.
These are amazing.
Thanks. I am glad you like them!

@@2dgameartguru ok thanks much
Mach weiter so Mega geil
Freut mich wenn es gefaellt! :) Danke!
@@2dgameartguru hast du noch mehr Text Effekte Auflager
Ja, ein paar... Ich habe noch ein Video zu Texteffekten in Arbeit [es liegt aber gerade wegen fortschreitender gesundheitlicher Probleme auf Eis]
@@2dgameartguru danke dir
Can this technique be sold on adobestock?
That depends on the fonts you use. It's not compatible with Adobe products but works only in Affinity Designer.

Thank You Chris! Mabel.
You are most welcome! Enjoy!
Hello from Panama!. Can you make a video creating a carousel for Instagram and how to export it? Please.
I am not using Instagram that much... I will look into it... but it should be a matter of artboards, symbols, and export persona.
Thank you!
You are welcome!
