Center Text In The Text Layer Sketchbook Desktop
Jump to Mobile or Windows 10
When editing text in SketchBook, you start with entering the text editing mode. This will enable making edits to the actual text, such as adding a word or fixing the spelling of something. You can also change the font and color.
Each version of SketchBook has slightly different tools for editing text. Some are more robust than others. Don't forget, if you are using a version that lacks some of the text functionality, you can always export your work and import it into a version with the functionality you need.
How to change the transparency of text
The opacity of a text layer can be changed using the layer's Opacity slider. Click-drag the opacity slider to change the transparency of a text layer. Since how to do this differs depending on the version you're using, see the sections below.
How to transform text
Once you've created text with the Text tool, you are in Transform mode. Depending on the version of SketchBook you're using, text can be moved, scaled, rotated, flipped, even distorted. Since the tools available differ depending on the version you're using, see the sections below.
Font size determines how much you can scale a font. A font size of 12 cannot be scaled up as much as one set to 24. A font of 12 cannot be scaled down as much as one set to 5. To scale a font any further, return to the Text window and increase/decrease the font size.

Once you've created your text, use the various text editing tools to make it just right.

Changing the transparency of text
In the Layer Editor, tap-drag the slider (seen below) to increase or decrease layer opacity.
-
Drag up to decrease opacity , making the layer content solid.
-
Drag down to increase opacity , making the layer content more transparent.
Transforming text
-
Tap the OK button in the Edit Text Layer dialog. Your text is centered in the canvas and you're in Transform mode.
-
Move is set as the default transform. Use the puck to select a different mode.
- When rotating or scaling the text, SketchBook uses the center of the text as the pivot point.
- When scaling text, font size is changed, resulting in no visual quality change.
Rasterizing a text layer
If you are using the free version , once you've exited the Edit Text Layer window, your text is automatically rasterized. You cannot return to the Edit Text Layer window to change the text, its color, or size. To change its size or orientation, use the Transform tools.
KEEP IN MIND: Changes to the size will affect the quality of the image, since you are scaling a rasterized image. This is why we recommend you do it once and do it right, if working in the free version.
Exclusive to the subscription version
Since your text it pixels and not rasterized, you can make changes to it without affecting the quality of the image. However, you can change text into paint, using , so you can manipulate it like a paint layer. Try using Distort.
- In the Layer Editor, tap-hold
to access the menu's tools.
- Select

When text is rasterized, Edit Text can no longer be applied.
