Title: Variable Oblique Text
Post by: JuneTheSecond on January 02, 2009, 03:23:00 AM
This is a transparent text with shadow.
You can change the oblique angle with control handle
or with right click menu.
You can edit text and
You can change text font and size as usual text.
But you cannot rotate nor add fill pattern,
because it is a shadow.
You can change color with right click menu
or with shadow option, not with text color,
because it is a shadow.
And please enable VBA macro.

As usual...another really creative and interesting solution from you...well done.

BTW, have you ever thought about any 3D/isometric letter stencil.
For example, an "I" that is really a tall 3D/isometric rectangle sandwiched between 2 short wide 3D isometric rectangles.

Isometric text can be written with this solution but we don't have a structured way of doing it.
When using a Isometric font we just have to rotate 30degrees, unfortunately, I only know one such font.
