Adding a Color Overlay

Color overlays allow you to apply a color tint over an image. This can help create a more consistent look or make text easier to read when placed on top of a photo.

How to Add a Color Overlay

  • Select the image on your canvas.
  • Open the image editing options.
  • Choose the Color Overlay setting.
  • Select your desired color.
  • Adjust the intensity until you achieve the desired effect. 

Things to Keep in Mind

Color overlays work especially well on background images and can help tie different design elements together.
