Working with the Shape Fill Parameter Group

The Shape Fill parameters set the Þll of the backdrop.

Select the Fill On checkbox to turn on the Þll. Deselect this option to leave the backdrop
unÞlled.

Fill Opacity determines the opacity of the Þll.

Fill Color sets the color of the Þll. Click the color chip to access the system color picker or
use the eyedropper to choose a color from the screen.

Working with the Transformations Parameter Group

Opacity adjusts the opacity of the text. A setting of 100 makes the text completely opaque,
while a setting of 0 makes the text completely transparent.

Position X/Y set the coordinates of the text’s center point. You can adjust or animate these
values to offset the text as it moves in or out

Position Z adjusts the apparent depth of the text. Decreasing negative values move the text
closer to the viewer, while increasing positive values move the text farther away. Very low
Position Z values move the text behind the viewer, making it invisible.
