![Make a Customizable Christmas Tree Topper
In this video, we create a personalizable Christmas Tree Topper. We apply the Fit Within modifier to Connected Text so that any name fits in our shape. We organize the design into a Preview and Cut component. Finally, we learn a slightly advanced trick and use the Visible modifier in conjunction with a Selection parameter so users can choose different shapes from a drop down menu.
