Well that may or may not be the extent of my knowledge on the Modern frame.Our old tutorial has been outdated for a while. Either way try it, and if the text is all wacky, just don't start a new line after it. Sometimes it results in the text spacing incorrectly, starting the text on the next line wherever the mana symbol starts. If your ability has a mana/tap symbol at the beginning or in the middle, you may not want to start a new line on the line after the symbol. Just find each word that starts a new line in the Preview, put the cursor in front of it and hit Enter. ![]() Put the cursor before a word that should start a new line and hit Enter.Įven if there is no bleeding, sometimes you may not want the double spacing. ![]() Use the Preview mode to note each word that should be the next line of text (this may change if the first word is bleeding over enough) and return to editing the card by hitting the Edit button. Using this will generally result in a double spacing between lines and possible bleeding onto the border, but that's fixable. ![]() This tricks the text box into thinking you have a mana or tap symbol and leaves no evidence on the actual card. (Using to the end of your text (not the beginning). (If you have less than 121 characters, but want your text to shrink, just add spaces until you get there.)ģ.) You can not use any mana or tap symbols. Now, there are some requirements to get the text to shrink.ġ.) You must be using the Passive Ability boxes.Ģ.) There must be at least 121 characters in the text box. The biggest benefit to using the Modern Frame is that the text can shrink, therefore giving you more space. The only real drawback to the Flavor Text box is that sometimes you want more than 160 characters, but you can usually just use the Passive Ability box if that's the case. It has a few flaws, but also gives you the ability to make text smaller. The Passive Ability box is almost always the go-to for abilities of all kinds. The only thing of note is that if you want your Passive Ability text to be farther down (about one additional line down), then you can add the Activated Ability box and leave it blank. You can't add symbols or use italics in the description, and it doesn't add a comma between the mana cost and tap symbol in the cost. The Passive Ability box does everything better. This box in my experience is outshined by the Passive Ability box. Also, if you want a small half a line break between the top of the card and your text, you can check this box without selecting any of the abilities (if you accidentally select one, just hold Ctrl and click on it to deselect it). Anyway, if you care too much, you can use the Activated Ability or Passive Ability boxes instead. The only drawback to note is that all abilities will be capitalized, whereas on a real card only the first one would be (also order, I suppose). This is where you'll find all the Evergreen abilities (deathtouch, lifelink, etc.). Welcome one and all to the most Modern tutorial type thing you'll ever see! Sights will be seen! Odors will be smelled! Noises will be heard! Now if you're wondering about some of the things I didn't include, head on over to Corwinnn's Cardsmithing tutorial here: Ģ.) Give you a line break between Passive Ability text boxes rather than an entire space.ġ.) Can't use Italics and mana/tap symbols in the same box.Ģ.) Can't use mana/tap symbols or italics after the cost section of the Activated Ability box.ģ.) Using italics in the Passive Ability box may result in:Ī.) Italicized text overlapping other text.ī.) A space before the Italicized text if it begins a new line.
