    Type effects and custom glyphs

    flyhiberlin

      Two things I could do in Freehand MX that are curiously missing from AI, even in CS4, even after all these years:

       

      1. Make it possible to add type effects to just a selection of my text, for example adding a drop shadow to just one word of an (editable) text.
      2. Allow to add geometry in type: In FH I could paste any vector geometry into a text (type, if you like), where it would behave like any other glyph: It would re-size with the text etc. Missing in AI, and I do not understand why. It often was quite handy.
