Ok I finally got it. Thank you! I think the one thing that could be tripping people up bc it did for me was the color fill at the bottom. When you add the rectangle or font make sure that color fill button is not clicked. Mine was as a default and was messing me up. Now that I unclicked it works! Thank you for your help!

Thank you so much for this video! I have no idea why...but I can't remember this for the life of me! LOL Everytime I need to use this method, I come back to your video and you walk me through it. Your calm voice and demanor also makes it so easy to learn from you! Thank you again - you've been a big help to me!

1) upload photo and fill canvas
2) add text (use thick letters - Wrench font is a good bet)
3) tap on text layer in layers menu
4) tap on "select"
5) select layer one (picture layer)
6) 3 finger swipe down (if this doesn't work, check your procreate settings)
7) select "duplicate" option
8) minimize all other layers to reveal text with photo inside

This was very easy to follow along with and straight forward. Thank You! 🔥

Literally none of the procreate videos I try work for me 😢 This crashes my system every time i try to select. When I do get past that line it only duplicates the photo without it being inside the text

Thank you for explaining this simply, there have been other videos I've tried to follow that just gave so many steps that were not necessary.

How do I layer one text box on top of another?

[lbstudio]

The most effecting way, took me a second to figured it out when I took me couple days to find the simple way. Thank you

im trying to do something this like this but i want the text to be transparent like a cute out in the picture for a logo but i’m struggling

[Bijecarli]

Oh mah gawd, it took me about five times, but I finally got it, y'all!

[RebeccaSteen-ow]

I used this and its helped! But now when i go to do it, its duplicating the photo and not the words..im doing all the exact steps and it wont work now...any suggestions

[esmeralda]

Hi, thank you for the tutorial but I just tried it and I can’t get it to work. I click on select then when I click on the layers to choose the picture layer, the select button turns off. Is there a setting that I need to change? Thank you.

[ashleygarrett]

Wow this is an awesome method! Thanks for sharing! I don't really understand how or why this works, but it's so much faster than layer masking. This will save me so much time, so thanks a lot!

How to do 2 pictures? Like instead of writing out the text. I wanna use 2 pictures one will the a screen shot of the design i want and the other will be a picture of a flower i want

[AcidShtz]

I have no idea why this doesn't work for me, I am following step by step, even when I try the rectangle method, and dow the 3 fingers swipe down and hit duplicate, it just makes a solid white square over the photo, and a duplicate of the layer so now there's 2 layers of a photo with a solid white rectangle over the photo. The same happens when I add text, and I swipe 3 fingers and hit duplicate, It just makes a duplicate of the text only to a separate layer but no photo background just all white letter texts. What am I doing wrong here?

[animesnk]

When i do duplicate it duplicates the image not the text although im following the exact steps

[hichammehditazi]

So useful, I needed that today, and done it Thank to you . Thanx a lot 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[sarahgrundy]

One thing to add, u have to hold one finger when u select the text and when you go to the other layer or else it wont save and u wont get the finished text

[AlexTorres-munh]

Im using a different font, also thick and it works but only on the outline. It doesn’t fill the letters any idea why?

[tianachrisohoou]

This has helped me a lot! If I have any problems with procreate I know who to go to 😭
