ScreenFlow User Guide | Main Window : Properties — Text Properties
| Text Properties These properties control the look of the text in a Text Box. ScreenFlow supports Rich Text inside of a Text Box. This means that all properties, except for Backdrop and Margin, apply to selected text. Backdrop and Margin apply only to the Text Box as a whole. If a Text Box is selected, but no sub-selection of text has been made, then the whole text is considered to be selected. Properties Font Changes the font of the currently selected text. See also “Show Fonts” in the Font menu. Size Changes the size of the currently selected text. See also “Show Fonts” from the Font menu. Alignment Changes the alignment of the text (left, center, right). This controls the alignment of the text inside of the Text Box. It does not control the placement of the Text Box on the ScreenFlow Canvas. Alignment is set per paragraph in the Text Box. Clicking anywhere in a paragraph and changing the alignment will change the alignment for the whole paragraph. Fill Changes how the selected text is filled. There are three options: Solid Color Click on the color swatch to choose a solid color to fill the selected text. Image An image is used to fill the text. To change, press “Choose…” or drag-drop a new image to the image well. Gradient A gradient is used to fill the text. The gradient is always from top to bottom in the text. To change the top color and opacity of the gradient, click near the top of the gradient color swatch. To change the bottom color and opacity of the gradient, click near the bottom of the gradient color swatch. Outline Click on the “Outline” checkbox to apply outline to the selected text. To adjust the thickness of the outline, drag the slider or enter a number next to the slider. Click on the color swatch to change the color of the outline.
