Author Action problem

hi,

i wanted to do a light from behind effect with photoshop. the effect
would look like if a text was placed in front of a spotlight and you were
looking at it with a front view. the effect is done by using noise and
radial blur and then changing the hue and saturation. the problem is that i
have to do the same effect for some about 24 to 30 different text which will
hopefully be used in a book. after the 7th effect it becomes a bit too
repetitive to do the same steps again and again. so i went to record it in
an actions set. the problem is that when i record it, photoshop records the
text that i have typed for the action and it reproduces it. i have done a
test and i have got 5 same pictures. i would like to record an action that
already puts the noise and does the radial blur then lets me put the text
and then continue to change the blending modes and the hue and saturation.

if anyone could help,
thanks

Insert a Stop at the point you want to type. See manual for details.
