I am creating a logo and I need to create text on a circle, but the hard part for me is she wants the first half on top, the 2nd part of the text on the bottom.
obviously i know how to use the circle path tool, but how is a good way to do this for the bottom? I know i can use the pen tool but i have never used it before and it looks complicated.
I have been working on a project in which I need to curve text. I know how to curve the text via creating a path, path to text, etc. This issue that I am having is that the bottom of the text is distorted. By distorted, I mean the bottom of the text becomes thin and it looks bad.
Here is an example of the issue that I am dealing with (if it shows up).
I am trying to create a logo with curved text at the top and bottom of a circular image, with spaces at the sides.
So, Curved text along the top of the circle and then curved text along the bottom, alinged and with the same amount of empty space between the text at each side of the circle.
I am struggling to get the text to be symmetrical and aligned evenly
When creating a work path on a new layer, the path is a grayish black color is there a way to create that path to be a different color, yellow for instance? Using CS6, I don't see it in preferences anywhere
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create an effect of small text following the outline of very large bold block text (see picture). The idea I had was to first create the 'ME' in very large font as text. Then convert that text to an object / path using "Object -> Flatten Transparency... -> "Convert all text to outline"". Then, select that path and use the "Type along path" tool.
However, when I use that process, the resulting path is a compound path that therefore the Type Along Path tool doesn't work. Any pointers on how to achieve this? The image below I just used the pencil to trace the letters (quick and dirty) but the result is choppy, etc.
I'm trying to place text to a "curvy" path. I took some screen shots to show you want I'm talking about.
I created a simple curvy path 1 point on each end. (I noticed I drew in a node in the middle of the curve as well. But that actually doesn't exist in the path. I created the text a reasonable size and clicked "Text Along Path". As you can see, it never starts at the beginning of the path. Ever. I have sized the font up, and it gets a little closer to the beginning, but obviously the end of the address flies off the path. I've sized down the text and it will start even further to the middle of the path.
I have no problem getting my text along a path but I am having trouble getting the text and the path to align so that the center of the text element is centered on the path.
Is this possible or do I have to figure out someway to make my path of a certain length so it ends up that the text fits to it perfectly??
Here is a screenshot of my current problem. You can see that the text and the image below it are centered. I then placed some guide lines to make sure my path was also centered. When I placed that text along the path though, it left justified the text when I want it to be centered instead..
New to 3ds Max. Watched the movie on constraining to a path but it never showed how to create the path. What's the easiest method?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've tried every permutation of copy and paste; I renamed the path to path. It looks like a path when I add stroke, but it does not behave like one. I can't cut it or join it to any other path. It remembers it's text path status. I'm running OS X 10.7.5.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI accidentally converted a path to a text path. I searched the forum for how to convert it back to a regular path. The answer I found said to select the path and hit Command+C+F. This gives me another text path! I now have at least 6 copies of the path in my files but they are ALL text paths and none are visible with a stroke.
View 5 Replies View RelatedWhy the "Text along path" feature hovers the text so far above the currently active path? (in my case, the space between the path and the text is about 3 times the height of the currently used font!). I've been told that the letters should lie on top of or at least closer to the path instead. How can I move the text closer to the path?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI created text on a curved path using the pen tool and the the type on a path tool. However, there are portions of the text that I want to taper. For example, my text begins horizontally, continues to the right, and gradually curves downward. As the text curves downward I would like it to taper smoothly into a narrower and narrower text.

I need to know how to make the path for the spring so I can sweep it, it does not have to be super accurate size-wise (it's more for representation purposes) but would still like to know how to do it..

I need to create an arch (shown in elevation), that follows a curved path (shown in plan).
I have been trying to convert this surface (attached file) into a closed volume. But somehow it isnt working.Then I tried to create this figure myself by creating two circles (one at the top and the other at the bottom) and then creating the path for using the sweep command , but it gives a error " sweep produces self intersecting curves".
convert this surface in to a sloid volume or if thats not possible can this geometry be created to the nearest possible approximation.
A client sent me their logo where the name is straight across. They would now like to wrap it around the circle in their logo... They do not know the name of the font, what the font couldn't id it, not much response on their forum...
Is there a way to fit text to path, where the text has already been converted to curves?
I am trying to do text to path and I finally got it to work, but it is not bringing the text color that I assigned. Instead the text becomes a black outline of the real text. I uploaded this to the application I wanted to use it in, and the text was gone.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got a problem with creating Path in Inventor VBA. I've created a source block definition in SourcePart.ipt, derived it in DestPart.ipt, placed this derived SketchBlockDefinition in Sketch3 and draw 3 extra lines. Now i want to add a SplitFeature with SplitTool as a Path of 3 lines, but first i need to create this Path. There is no problem with creating path from this 3 extra lines, but when i want to create path from lines that belongs to derived block - an error occurs.
Below is sample code (also included in attached file - DestPart.ipt). Try run it with DestPart.ipt as an active file. When Inventor is prompting for Selecting Sketch Entity first select one of 3 extra lines, macro ends with no errors. Then run it again, this time select one of 3 lines that belongs to SketchBlock - an error occurs.
When you try to add SplitFeature (Trim Solid) by UserInterface Button "Split" there is no problem with any set of 3 lines.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI can create text on a path in Indesign easily enough but keep running into the same problem in Photoshop CS4.
I create a curved path with the pen tool but when I click on it with the type tool a little circle is created on the path that stops me typing fully along the path - i can only type up to the circle.
I've hi-lighted the circle in this screen grab.
I'd like to type "text on a path" but the circle prevents me typing anymore words once the letters "text" have reached the circle and an x appears in the circle.
I keep getting this problem on any curved paths I make.
I would like to have text follow the path of a line without showing the line
i.e. "FACE TO FACE" following a horizontal "S" curve or possibly a pentagon
How do I create the line and then attach the text to the line and make the line invisable?
I can't figure this out... and tried to utilize the SEARCH feature of this site... but couldnt get the best results for what i'm trying to achieve.
I'm trying to type on a circle path-- but I want the text to be typed on the INSIDE of the circle, not the outside.
Let me see if i could clarify without making it more complicated :
Normally, (i'm using cs2) I would draw the circle path and move the text cursor over the shape until it reveals that "wiggly" line. Okay- so i understand that. When I start typing, the text "STANDS" on the drawn path. How do I have the text "HANG" from the path? (much like how a pendant would "hang" off of a necklace)
Is there any possible way, other than drawing out a straight line (with the pentool) and manipulating it to bend (like the letter "U")?
May I know how to remove the arc as shown in the picture below without touching the text?
View 9 Replies View Relatedwant some text along a circular path and the result of "text to path" is ALWAYS text is truncated at the 19th character.GIMP 2.8.2 on Ubuntu 12.11
Process1. create a new background
2. make a circular selection
3. issue "select / to path" command
4. issue "select / none" command
5. create my text, 35 characters long on one line6. issue "text / along path" command
The text ALWAYS starts at the 12 o'clock position and is ALWAYS cut off at the 19th character! On the original circle the text cuts off at the 4 o'clock position.If I make the circle larger the text is still cut off at the 19th character but: - It starts at 12 o'clock and is cut off at 2 o'clock
If I make the circle smaller the text is still cut off at the 19th character but: - It starts at 12 o'clock and is cut off at 6 o'clock..All the circles are large enough for all the text to print around their circumference.
All I did was use the ellipse tool to make the selection, turn the selection into a work path, then select the text tool and click on the path to make the text path, but it goes like this.
