layering question

Post by cinnamon457 »

how do i create a background layer...for example if i have a boat svg file and i want a white background layer on the bottom of the boat...the layer needs to be larger than the boat...but is there a simple feature in scale 2 that will create a background layer...

another example...if i have the text WILLIAMS in green...how do i create a red background layer?

Select your shape. Go to object - shadow layer and then size the layer to your preference.
