4. There
is
only one font you can choose for your text. This font,
called Topaz,
is
the same one used by the Workbench for menus
and icons. You can, however, select one
of
two font sizes:
TOPAZ_SIXTY
is
the larger,
TOPAZ-EIGHTY
the smaller. If
the size you want does not appear
in
the gadget labeled Font,
select the gadget to change to the other size.
5. Select one
of
the four display modes for text. These modes are:
JAM I, where text
is
shown
in
the currently selected fore-
ground color without a background
JAM2, where text
is
shown
in
the foreground color against
the currently selected background color
COMPLEMENT, where each pixel that makes
up
the text
is
the color
"opposite"
the color
of
the pixel that
it
replaces.
(To see how this works, add text to
an
icon containing all
four colors, then move the text as described below.)
INVERSVID, ground color. When you
addlNVERSVID
text to an icon, the background for the text replaces existing
pixels
in
the icon while the text itself does not.
To change the display mode, point within the gadget labeled
Mode, then click the Selection button one
or
more times until the
name
of
the mode you want appears. In the gadget, note that the
name
of
the mode
is
displayed
in
the gadget using the currently
selected foreground color, background color, and display mode.
6. Select the Position gadget to add the text to the icon.
In
the
requester that appears, select the arrows to move the text up,
down, left,
or
right. Select the Single gadget if you want the text
to move only a single pixel each time you select
an
arrow. Select
Repeat if you want the text to continue to move if you hold down
the Selection button after you select an arrow. When the text
is
where you want it, se
le
ct OK.
If
you change your mind, select
Cancel to return to the previous requester without adding text to
the icon.
