How to make text into path

Hi I’m having trouble trying to add text to a path so I can curl the text, It doesn’t come up with attach text to path. This is from a lightburn video. Anyone help please.

what exactly are you trying to achieve, can you show an example, then it will be easier to help.

Here, I draw a path, then create some text. Select both and then right-click the selection to expose a context menu.

Choose ‘Apply Path to Text’.

If you want to just add a curve to your text, there is the ‘Blue-Dot’ option. With text selected, you can grab the Blue-Dot next to the text and drag to curve.

Thanks so much the second one is the one that worked! The 1st one doesn’t work.

Thanks for answering, sorted now.

Glad to hear you have a workable solution using the Blue-Dot to bend the text. If interested, share a bit more about the steps you take trying to ‘Apply Path to Text’, and what result you expect, what did or did not happen? Show us with pictures if that works better for you. Share the details, as “doesn’t work” offers little for us to work with. :slight_smile:

Yes of course you are right it doesn’t offer anything to work with. So I shut down started again, did exactly the same thing and guess what, apply path to text was there! hey ho!
