Ok I see what you're saying. I'll admit that I'm a bit confused by this myself. But I thought I thought I worked with layers in raster, but I see that I am wrong. I think I'm getting vector and raster confused. This from the help files: Some commands and tools--such as filter effects and painting tools--are not available for type layers. You must rasterize the type prior to applying the command or using the tool. Rasterizing converts the type layer to a normal layer and makes its contents uneditable as text. A warning message appears if you choose a command or tool that requires a rasterized layer. Some warning messages provide an OK button that you can click to rasterize the layer. So I guess I was wrong.... I just tried playing around and I see what's going on. It can't be edited. I always save a copy of the final work with all layers intact. I don't raterize. I always just leave text on it's own layer. If I want to edit the text, I highlight the layer of text. Click on the text tool, highlight the words I want to change, and then retype new words, or change fonts, size etc.... It's always worked.

I am, therefore I create.......
