SO my wife wants me to make her a couple signs like this. I like the idea but I have no idea how they added that text on top of text. What am I missing that I am going to kick myself for later?

There are different approaches, but here's a quick/easy way to do the overlaid text...

1) Make a large Carve Region
2) Type the first Text element and set it for Raster and change the height down to 50
3) Type the second Text element (Raster and leave height at 100)

Thats exactly what I needed, I told my wife that I couldnt figure it out and was going to put it on the forum and she said, Why? I said, Just wait and see...

yup..... My wife thinks I know alot about my CW. When something doesn't work on my CW she asks if I can fix it. I just tell her I need to "think about how to fix it". Little does she know that I'm just waiting for a reply on the forum for my "what can I do" question. LOL.

That's what your first "Tips and Tricks" is all about. Thanks for all those PDF's. BJB
