SOMETHING LIKE IN THE ATTACHED SCREENSHOT? Play with the green / red handles and the baseline values. Top I had 100% for the text and bottom -50% for the text.

Paul Mudditt Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) Use the Baseline setting on the context toolbar to move the text above and below the curve, use the red and green handles to position text and also the reverse text path control again on the context toolbar to correct upside down text etc EDIT: Screen recording added Photo_Customer_Beta_2020_10.07_-_13_36_37_06.mp4 Edited October 7, 2020 by Paul Mudditt Screen recording added HANDJOJO 1 Quote Affinity Photo, Designer, Publisher 1.10 and 2.5 on macOS 15.0 Beta Sequoia on M1 Mac Mini 16GB 1TB Affinity Photo, Designer, Publisher 1.10 and 2.5 on Windows 10 Pro.

Type the first line, press the Enter key on your keyboard and then type the second line. This will give you two pieces of text which can be adjusted independently.

Quote by the way how put the text both inside the circle As @Joachim_L indicated, this is determined by the baseline value. That’s why I included the words ‘Negative baseline’ in the filename: when you open the file, you’ll find that the bottom line of text has a small positive baseline value (to move it up slightly so that there’s a gap between the circle and the text) but the top line of text has a large negative value to bring it inside the circle.

Thanks for your clear explanation, for above text set to negatife baseline so the text move to inside the circle, oposite for the bellow text set to positive baselline. 👍 Alfred 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
