Card Design Demo

Featured User Interface

The menu driven user interface was added to the second beta release of Rad Card. The look and feel that was available in the first release (classic) and the UI of the first beta (modern) have also been preserved. Thus the current version of the applet has three different look and feels. You an switch between them easily just by changing one line in the configuration file.

When you hit the Text icon ('T'), a add text dialog will popup. Use the textarea to enter your text and click on OK to add the text.

To edit an exiting text item select it first by clicking on it with the mouse. Once you have finished editing the selected item hit the ok button to save the changes. If you click cancel the original text will be preserved.

Formatting Text

You can set font properties such as bold, italics and underline by clicking on the relevent buttons in the top most tool bar (the text has to be selected first). You can change font sizes and fonts by using the corresponding combo boxes

This release makes it possible for you to import images to your work by simpling pasting them on the work area. Select an image from your hard disck use Ctrl-c to copy it, move the mouse over to the canvas and use edit->paste or Ctrl-v to import the selected picture.
