Help with "Type on Path". It only lets me type one letter!

Post by bunnyhop24 »

Hi,

Has anyone had a problem with "Type on Path" is SCAL4? I'm trying to add text around an oval. I add the oval, then click "type on path", then start typing. It only lets me type one letter, then nothing else. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,
Amy

Amy, did you convert the object to a path? Path/object to path?

this may help

Thanks so much! That worked! I thought in SCAL2 that I only had to do the "path" thing if I was reversing the direction of the letters. Now I know I have to do it every time in SCAL4. Thank you!
