Video Transcript

"Hey everybody! My name is Matt. I'm speaking to you on behalf of Expert Village. If you select a text bubble and come over here to the details on the right, you can change a couple of different other attributes over here. If you want to change the type of bubble, you can click on the tab beside kind and change that. I'm going to change this to a thought bubble. These correspond to the different bubbles down here at the bottom. There's a couple of other options you can add. You've got different styles. Just like with the pictures, these are presets and they're going to change a bunch of the options down here. You can add gradients if you want to your bubbles as well as frames, shadows, and different things. Like I said, if you change the style here, that's going to set all the stuff up down here at the bottom to some presets. You can get some cool effects this way. Another thing you can do with the text bubbles is down here where it says extend at the bottom, if you click and drag that up to a text bubble. That's going to extend your text bubble so that you can have multiple thought or speech bubbles going to different places. It's just going to basically link them together as you can see. This is a useful thing if you want to put more than one bubble coming from the same person."
