Learning the tools in StudioWorks

In November I spent time learning about the tools in StudioWorks: the software I would be using to create the magazine. First, I learn how to use the Navigation Bar to access each of the different tools and sections.

 Afterward, I completed an assignment, teaching me how to:

• Create a text box 
• Create a picture box 
• Create a colored background 
• Add a picture 
• Choose a font 
• Choose text size 
• Identify the bleed marker 
• Identify the gutter 
• Use the measurement tool in StudioWorks 
• Measure things in picas 
• Add a stroke

Another assignment then taught me how to:

• Identify the trim 
• Change the transparency 
• Add a drop shadow with a gradient 
• Adjust the softness 
• Utilize text-wrapping 
• Add a rounding radius 
• Flip an image 
• Invert an image
