I started crying when I saw how simple this was. I have been doing it a much different, much more difficult, much more finickier and painful way for years. You have opened a new chapter for me. Thank you so much for sharing
Really helpful tutorial. I'm trying to make a similar style but with square corners to the outline. Is there a way of using this process to achieve this or would I need to use the selecting pixels process?
Sorry to reply to such an old comment but it might help anyone else reading - you need to convert the text to a shape (right-click > Convert to Shape). The stroke on the shape will follow the text properly instead of giving the rounded effect. The only issues are that you can no longer change what the text says, and also you cannot easily add a second outline in this manner because Photoshop still has no feature to convert the stroke to a real path. So, if you need multiple outlines you can just duplicate the shape layer and increase the stroke size on layers below, or you can export to illustrator/inkscape/etc and do it there, and re-import to Photoshop.
Can the double outline be done in Photoshop Elements? It doesn't seem like theres an ability to have multiple different layer styles on one layer in Elements, unless I'm missing something...
This is great stuff, my question is: how do I make a transparent stroke, so that whatever I place my text on top of, the stroke removes part of the image below it? Like placing text on top of a busy image and I need some blank space between the edge of my text and the image itself.
1. Create your text and duplicate it. (duplicate the text layer) 2. Apply a outline with a thickness that you want as transparent space to the text on the bottom layer. 3. Wrap the bottom layer to a smart object. 4. Set the fill of the smart object to 0% and apply your second outline on it. 5. The duplicated text layer on top can be used to set the text color or other fancy modifications.
@@LaChRiZ2k I tried your instructions, but maybe my question wasn't very clear. Actually, it's likely it wasn't clear at all. Think of putting a picture of light pink flower on a textured background. I want to place white text on the flower. I want to put a stroke on the text so that the text is surrounded by, say 10 px, of the background. So no matter where I move the text to, it hides 10 px of the flower surrounding the text and shows the background in that space. Like the stroke is a window thru the flower. I've seen it done before, but I can't, for the life of me, find the video or remember how to do it.
@@bigmamabren3360 Ah ok, I understand. Create your text with outline. In the layers panel, right click on the stroke and choose "create layer". This creates a new layer from the stroke-style. Use this Layer to create a mask on the flower. (Shift click on the style layer, create mask on the flower layer, maybe invert the mask (ctrl + i) to make the inner part black/invisible.) The downside of this solution is, that it is destructive. When you edit the text, you have to start over.
Q: Is there anyway to make the inside font transparent, in this case the blue, so I just have the stroke and anything below this layer shows thru the stroked font outline? thxs

Easy and concise! I love when I need to figure out something quick in Photoshop and find a video tutorial only a few minutes long. Thanks man!
Absolutely insane how much you could explain in that little amount of time compared to most other videos. Thank you so much
this is the only legitimate tutorial for this and its 2 years old and still works!
That was the fastest thing I ever have done with photoshop! Thank you!!!
Something so simple but I just couldn't find out how to do this for the life of me! You're a lifesaver! :} Thank you so much. :)
for those still using CS6 or non newer versions of PS. --- add first stroke > rasterize layer style > apply second stroke > if more needed continue.
Thank you so much 😭😭😭

I can't add another stroke when i right click stroke is already there from he last time.

I'm trying to add the 2nd outline but it happened to change the first one i made not adding a new one. Anyone can tell me why?
Good video but what I can't understand is why the outline option wouldn't be in the text options.
How do I go about getting the stroke to be smooth and rounded?
Can you make the second stroke transparent?
Yes, just set the stroke opacity to 0%
can you pls make more tutorials on pphotoshop
How to do this but in word?
Does anyone know the name of this font ?
Does the version of photoshop matter? I am selecting the text blending options and there is no change when I adjust stroke size.
Change Size
Check your color to make sure it isn’t the same color as ur text
How would I place a texture inside of that outline?
Is there a way tp just copy the stroke only
Try disabling the visibility of every other object in the Layers so only the stroke is visible and go to Edit > Copy
answer is at 1:08
Which app ??

Change the Fill of the layer to 0%
