thank you everyone.
I think I understand that now, it works in both ways, using Ricks way in layers you keep the text as text and can still play with it and as you say switch off the layer to output and show in the layers list and using Hank’s way you can also do it similarly to T2 but that will then turn the text in to individual objects and not text per say and make them separate objects completely.
As you say both ways work well depending on what you want to do, thank you Gentlemen another useful exercise.
I will get there in the end, its somewhat confusing for me as this is the first time I have ever used program like this and its a little alien to me to understand how things work on vectors and nodes etc.
My background is photography and Photoshop not Illustrator! Layers though I do understand…makes life very easy. Thanks again both of you for your help!! Very Happy !
