Transparent Text?
2022-01-09 17:31:41
Hello there. I am trying to recreate the header on this page. I have attached the PNG used on the website. I want to do the same thing in Pixelmator so background colour, text on top with the text being transparent like in the image. I tried using the smart erase to make the text trasnparent but this does not work. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance. https://play.divi.express/agency-21/

You need a shape as background instead, a colored rectangle will be perfectly fine. Now make your text element and when done go Format->Convert into Shape
Now add select the background shape and go: Format->Shape->Subtract Shapes that´s it - unless I miss your point.

You need to select the 2 shapes for a Boolean operation; converted text plus rectangle.
