I** Keep Aspect Ratio: Select this check box, and the balloon keeps the same shape, regardless of how large or small you size it. V Fit Text: Select this check box, and the balloon automatically adjusts to the minimum size needed to incorporate the text.
Simply select the balloon type you want to use, and you're all set. V Select Word Balloon: This drop-down list contains all of the default and user-created balloon templates available. The options on the Word Balloon tab are as follows: The Word Balloon tab in the Layer Properties palette.
Just clicking that tab creates the default word balloon, so you're already halfway done, (i told you that you have it easier than the Debut users!) That tab, as shown in Figure 12-13, contains all your word balloon options. If none of the default templates are to your liking, you can simply create your own, which you can re-use as many times as you want! (Or you can create them by hand - see the "Creating Word Balloons in Manga Studio Debut" section, earlier in this chapter.)Īfter you create text on the page and click OK, you'll notice a third tab can now be seen on the Layer Properties palette. In fact, all you need to do is take advantage of the Word Balloon function, and you can use any of EX's prein-stalled balloons. You Manga Studio EX users out there have things a lot easier than Debut users, as far as creating word balloons go.
