bfleming6164 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 I’m trying to get song lyrics to format in the shape of a guitar. I outlined the guitar with the pen tool, made sure it was closed and all on one layer, clicked on the frame text tool, and the text starts at the bottom going sideways instead of at the top. I cannot get the cursor to move or the text to change directions. Any ideas? I’m pretty new to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Lee D Posted January 17, 2020 Staff Share Posted January 17, 2020 @bfleming6164 If you have rotated your image before inserting the text if may be worth using the History studio to go back to before that point. Then switch to the Node Tool and draw a selection around all nodes. On the Context toolbar at the bottom select the Transform Mode icon (third in from right on the top level) and rotate the whole selection.

bfleming6164 Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 Lee D Thank you soo much! It worked! My only other question is: is there a way to flatten all that text into one layer? I’m attempting to load my svg into Cricut Design Space and every single letter comes through as a separate layer and freezes the Cricut software.
