How do I get to use the text styles that are shown in the Easy Pallette Text Library Styles listings. I create text in a new image and want to apply the library style but all I get is a "UPI" Image of the style I want inserted into my image...what am I doing wrong? How do I change it? I have a fully licensed and registered product!

Welcome to the forums Bcrcav8r,..

To use the Text Styles in the Easy Palette, double-click, or drag them to your workspace. Then right-click on it, and choose Edit Text. Now you can type the text you want, and the attributes for the text style will be applied.

Here's a quick example, where I used the S01 text-style.

Please try with S02 style and see if you can get it to work. I did as you suggested and could not get it to work!

Scrap it, I figured it out, some of the styles are made up of more than one part, you must ungroup them first and edit each part...kind of a hassle but I guess a person can work through it...might be a consideration for an "improvement" in future patches or releases!

With the SO2 style, you must first ungroup it. Then in the Layer Manager you should see 2 groups. Now right-click on one group at a time, select edit text. Then when you're done editing, re-group them.

There are 2 grouped objects, 1-for the shadow effect.

Example using SO2 style:
