Thanks what's that? o.O RE: How to create a text reflection - Kureo - 11-12-2013 (11-12-2013, 05:55 PM)Daniel Wrote: what's that? o.O Its an setting for selection that allows one to "Skew" a layer by dragging the layer points. An example would be to make the back-end of a text to look smaller, while making the other side look bigger. Creating an "3D effect"'ish.
