Text: Input and Display
Text Styles
All text elements appearing in Logic refer to user-definable default settings called Text
Styles. When you insert text into the score, you can assign any of the predefined Text
Styles to it. This way, you don’t need to set all text attributes like font, size, style, and so
on again, every time you insert a new text object.
Text Styles
All Text Styles which are used in a song are listed in the Text Style window. There, you
can edit the existing Text Styles, or create new ones. You can open this window the
following ways:
• Menu Text > Text Styles…
• Double-click on the Text Style name in the Event Parameter box (only visible if either
text objects or no objects at all are selected)
The first eleven lines contain the System Text Styles, which exist in every song (but can
be edited according to personal preference). Below these (separated by the horizontal
line which is a bit thicker), there are the user-created Text Styles. Text Styles are saved
with the song file, so they can be different for each song.
Each line first shows the Name of the Text Style, then the Font (selectable with the pull-
down menu), its Size, and the different columns for the style attributes (activated with
a click in the corresponding field): bold, underline, italic, outline, and circled. Circled
draws a circle around the text, which with longer texts is stretched horizontally
according to the text.
