#Reflect31: My 3 Words |
The prompt for Day 1 was to think of three words that describe your mindset for the upcoming school year and create an image. As I transition into a new position this year, I know reflection will be key to my growth. Using Google Drawing I wanted to reflect with words reflect. A very predictable visual representation but I didn't know how to do that effect in Drawing and now had an opportunity to learn. A quick google search revealed that within Photoshop you duplicate your desired text and flip vertically.
Never fear...there is a way to reflect text in Google Drawing! You can flip vertically an image, not text, to achieve the desired results. Here's the steps.

2) Create a New Google Drawing. Paste the TextBox into your new Google Drawing file. Italicize text. Resize Google Drawing Canvas by dragging lower right corner.
3) File > Download > .png
4) Insert Downloaded Image into your Original Google Drawing. Insert > Upload > Choose Image File
5) Select Image > Right Click > Rotate > Flip Vertically
6) Line up with your original text. Tip: Use shift + arrow keys to make adjustments 1px at a time.
7) Change transparency of the image to acheive desired results. Image Options > Slide Transparency Scale left to right until satisfied.
