    Hey @Irshad_Hossain0041 

    Hope you are fine

     

    This happens because both text layers share the same Layer Style Instance in Premier Pro. To apply different bevel settings to each text layer:

     

    1) Convert One Text Layer to Essential Graphics - Right-click the text layer, select "Upgrade to source graphic" to make it independant.

     

    2) Duplicate and Modify - Instead of copying the text layer, create a new one and apply separate Bevel settings.

     

    3) Use Seperate Adjustment Layers - If needed, apply different effects to each text layer using adjustment layers.

     

    This should resolve the issue.

    You seem to be talking about Premiere Pro, so why post on the Photoshop Forum?

    I expect @Stephen Marsh already solved the issue, otherwise please post meaningful screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Options Bar, …) and the Layer Style-dialog for both Layers visible?

    Almost certainly what is going on.  I can't think of any other circumstance that would cause this.

    Are your Type Layers linked— denoted by the link icon?

    To separate linked layers, right-click and select UNLINK from the menu.

     

    Hope that helps.

    Make sure both text layers are separate. If they are linked or part of the same smart object changing one will affect the other. Try keeping them as separate layers. Also mention the Adobe program you're using for better assistance.

    When you post a question you always need to tell the Adobe program you are using
    There are MANY programs in a full subscription, plus other non-subscription programs
    Please post the exact name of the Adobe program you use so a Moderator may move this message to that forum
