Table Of Contents
The panel background changes to accommodate longer or wider blocks of text.
You can adjust the width of a text column by going into the Text Tool and dragging the column width
handles (under the first line of text). Most of the Design Gallery
templates provide a few text panels in keeping with the theme. Some text panels will only stretch
vertically, others will stretch vertically and horizontally.
To create your own stretching button or text panel, use one of the existing ones from the Design
Gallery
and adapt this by re-coloring the background or adjusting text color / size / width.
Note
: You can create new stretching components using Xara Designer Pro.
Spell Checker
On the Text Tool InfoBar is a button that selects the spell checker
options and language. If you select Check Spelling as you type
this will also mark all unrecognized words with a red dotted underline.
Right click on any marked word to be presented with suggested
alternatives.
Embedded Fonts
Web Designer Premium stores the character shapes of all the fonts used in your document. This means if
you give someone else your .web file, or transfer the file to another computer they will see exactly what
you see, even if the correct fonts are not installed on that computer. But this only embeds the characters
that are used in the document (it's not a full font that is included). So on computers with the fonts missing,
any text that is added in the missing fonts may be missing the correct character shapes.
Text Tip: There are a lot of shortcuts available in the Text Tool
. Refer to the reference section on keyboard shortcuts to see them all. One useful one for experimenting
with page layouts, "Ctrl + Shift + L", inserts a block of random pseudo Latin.
