44 Pacesetter BES Lettering Instruction Manual Using the Envelope Handles These handles apply only to Normal Text and Monogram text items. These two types of text are surrounded by a flexible bounding box, called an envelope. You can adjust this shape, by moving the Envelope Handles. The Envelope Handles are the round, pink handles that are centered on the design, both above and below the text. These handles adjust vertically to form a curved shape to the text, top and bottom independently. Used in combination with the Corner Handles, a wide variety of text effects can be achieved. Another way you can apply an envelope shape to a text segment is through the Properties Panel. You can use the Envelope property in the Text area to apply a predefined envelope to a Normal Text or Monogram text item. For more information see "Applying an Envelope" in the "Lettering Properties" section. Rotating Text To rotate text, use the Rotation Handle. The Rotation Handle is at the top right of the design and appears as an orange circle. Place your mouse over this handle and the pointer will change to a circle-arrow handle . For Circle Frames, note that the rotation handle is appears on the inner circle of the frame, centered under the top text string. See "Rotating Circle Text".
