Dear Affinity Team

As you might already know: Texting on paths is not possible in Photo...but why tho

I thought you wanted to be better than Photoshop in every way possible...and you are soooo close. But little things like this really ruin it to me tbh.

Please add that feature

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums, @Motox.

Text on a Path is a function that is part of Affinity Designer, but not one that is directly exposed in Affinity Photo.

You can copy a Path Text layer from Designer into Photo and use it, if you have both applications (or if you search the Resources forum for one that someone has posted there). Or you can use a macro from Mud's Macros V3, or you can use the macro from my macro file below. For mine, import the file into the Library studio panel, then with a path or shape selected, run the macro.
