It's a rather simple ordeal to change the color for certain words in a text field, but I'm also trying to change the opacity of certain words.
I want the whole text field to be at about 10% opacity, but certain words that I choose to be a different color and at 80% opacity. I don't know of any transparency controls on the character pallet.
Is there any straightforward way to do this?
You can add a layer mask to text layers....
Add the mask set to reveal all (white)
Make a selection around the text you want to adjust opacity on.... then fill the selection with the percentage of black to indicate opacity.
80% black fill means the text will be seen at 20% opacity.
There is no direct method of altering opacity for individual characters within a text layer via the Character or Paragraph options.
