CR9 text design

Hi
I have a text object inside my CR9 report.What I want is to display the text shaded.
How can I do it?
thanks

You would either need to use a shaded font, or you could use 2 text objects with exactly the same text, one with black text and the other gray and superimpose them slightly offset from each other. That will give you a shadow effect.

ah no there isn'y another way?
thanks in advance

What is your definition of "text shaded"?

You can add a Drop Shadow for the report object or set its Background color (or both).

If you want a shadowed text box, then brucevde has answered your question. If you want the actual text to have a shadow, then no, I don't think there's any other way.
Superimposing two text objects to create a shadow effect is easy.
