Hello, everyone. In this quick tip, I'm going to show you how to break up some lines of text and I'm going to show you how to evenly spaced these lines of text. So using the create text tool, I just wrote four lines of text and I just use the enter key to make it go on another line. So I'm going to close this tool and deselect the text.
But one thing you may notice is the lines of text are not perfectly spaced apart. So as you can see, this J and the H are very close together. And then the top of this J and the B are a little bit further apart. And same thing up here. The bottom of the Q and the top of the F are pretty close together.
And then there's a bigger gap down here. So there's two ways you can fix this. You can either select the text first and then go to the edit text tool. And that allows you to change the spacing in between each line. That's going to be the manual way to do it, but it's a little bit difficult to get it perfect that way.
So another way you can do it that's a little bit easier is if we go back to our selection mode and then right click on the text and then you want to click break text blocks into lines. And when you click on that that's going to break each line of text into its own block. Now you can edit these all individually and then you could also move them individually.
So now that they're separated, we can draw a selection box around all of them to select all four lines and then go to your alignment tool and then at the very bottom we have the space selection. And if you just click this one here to space it vertically, that's going to make this spacing between all the lines of text exactly the same.
So now this looks much better, we can click close. And there we go, now our text is evenly spaced. Now, just keep in mind, you cannot connect those back together in one single block of text. And you could see if we deselect, there's still separate lines of text but if you wanted to, you can select all of them and then you can use the letter G on your keyboard to group those together.
Now, if you deselect and select one letter, it will select everything because it's grouped all together. So that's a little quick tip if you're trying to get evenly spaced lines of text. And also if you never heard of this sentence before, this actually has all the letters of the alphabet in it in one single sentence. All right. So that's all for this video.
