Text: different colours

Hi there,

Thanx so long for your help. I hope my explanation on my question tells what I want to know.

I have landscape graphic, 500 x 200pixels.

This grtaphic consists of three colours:
top = Blue
middle = White
Bottom = Blue

On this graphic I have blue text covering all three rows: How can I make the text falling on the Blue area RED, and text falling on the RED area BLUE?

I trust someone will be able to help me. I know it is done, not sure what it is called and therefor cannot search for help on this.

Thanx for the reply.

What I mean is that one letter consists of three colours. The top part of the letter will be Blue, the middle part Red and the bottom part white, as as example.

Duplicate the text layer twice so you have three text layer, now rasterise the layers, set the first layer to the first colour say blue, set layer 2 to white select the bits of text you dont want and delete

Can’t you marquee the background colour then replace text colour within the marquee?

You can not take text and make one letter be three different colors until you first "rasterize" the text, using the Layer->Rasterize command. Once you do this, the type is no longer type–you can’t edit the text any more–but you can change its color any way you like.
