Tint |
Use Tint to control how dark or light an object (graphic, text, or headline) in your project is. You may want to lighten a graphic so that you can place text over it and still be able to read the text, for example. When you apply the Tint effect to an object which has a Box effect applied, it will not affect a box.
To apply Tint to selected objects:
1. Click the Tint button on the Effects palette or choose Tint from the Effects menu.
2. Choose a tint shade you want from the submenu. A setting of 10% is the lightest intensity and a setting of 100% is the darkest.
Backdrops and textures can be tinted also. You can apply a tint to the backdrop or control how dark or light a texture is by choosing the tint shade you want from the Tint pop-up menu in the Select a Backdrop dialog or in the Texture pane of the Color and Texture dialog respectively.
