- Applying a scribble effect to type
this is non-destructive when applied
through the appearance panel.
Because I want the scribble to not interact
with the current fill color.
I'll start out by applying none.
Then come to the appearance panel
where I will add a new fill.
In the color I want to use in this case, red.
And then from the FX dropdown
I will come to stylize and choose scribble.
I'll set this back to the default settings.
And I don't need to make too many changes here,
but I could if I wanted to move the scribble
outside or inside of the path shape.
I would like to slightly reduce the weight of the line.
And slightly increase the spacing.
Now with these sliders a little, goes a long way.
So rather than pull the sliders around themselves
I'm just going to put my cursor
into this field and tap the up arrow.
I'd also like to slightly increase the curviness.
And move towards my line being more loopy.
They were having fun when they came
up with the names for these menus.
Now entirely optionally.
I'm going to add in a stroke just to bring back
a bit of definition to the letter shapes.
And again, optionally
I'm going to slightly roughin that stroke
back to my FX dropdown
this time to distort and transform roughin.
And here I will take the size all the way down
increase the detail and make the points smooth.
