CPC got a reaction from Silvery100 in how to fill certain fields in this lined circle?
Silvery100,
Two suggestions for your 6x6 pattern:
Un-group the rows -- then individual square can be selected by clickiing on them.
Name the squares so you can easily find one in the layers panel if needed eg A1, A2, A3... B2, B2 B3 etc.
Regards,
Carl

Might fill mode 'Contrast Negate' be an option?

CPC got a reaction from Alfred in Help curving fonts. but more!
Alfred & G13RL,
Thanks for your contributions -- will make my future work easier than 'playing' till it works! 🙂

lascivious1,
Two things to play with...
The little triangular arrows slide around to set text start and end limits -- I regularly go back to the Help file to remember all the options for text direction and positioning inside or outside the curve!
At the top , use the Baseline adjustment to position the text higher (inside) or lower (outside).

Carl

CPC got a reaction from Song Palmese in Text Background Color
I had a quick try...
Added some text, which appeared with the unwanted background.
Chose the text layer and added a style. Didn't matter which -- the text's background disappeared!
Went to the effects tab and un-ticked everything which left only a fill color which could be changed to whatever I wanted.
No doubt there is a more direct way?

CPC got a reaction from Mandu in How do you export smooth gradients? (Solved or ongoing - it's complicated)
Mandu,
Is this what you are seeing? It was saved first as a 4bit BMP with no dithering (in paint.net) and then re-loaded and saved as a jpeg to attach here. Perhaps your monitor is the problem as you suggest.

CPC got a reaction from Mark M. (bigmountainstudio in Curve Text Into Shape (See attached example)
Another basic way to get something like what's wanted?
An advantage is that the path shape is converted to curves, not the text which remains editable. (Arial Black in this example)

CPC got a reaction from jmwellborn in Multi (photo) colored text
Callum,
Thanks for the welcome! Just starting out and freely admit I've not watched all the fine tutorial videos. Curious, is this image clipping to text effect documented anywhere? All I've found in the Publisher help file for colored text is reference to the swatches.
jmwellborn,
Glad you like it. Playing further I find that artistic text stroke can add a border. Try different joins and aligns.

CPC got a reaction from BecH in Path not disappearing when adding text to it
When you use the Artistic Text tool to add text to your path the stroke and color settings relate to the text -- as you have observed. Go to [View] > [Studio] > [Text Frame] to add this function to the menu and now you can make the path disappear -- stroke =0 and no fill. Perhaps the update changed the text frame default option to 'off' ?
