AD v2.03: Contour w/Warp (Arc Horizontal) on Text Creates Deformities

[Lefo]

Hi! I'm loving AD v2, and thank you very much for making such a great software.

I'm using AD v2.03 on Windows 11. Everything's up-to-date.

I'm trying to use the Contour Tool on Text and use the Warp -> Arc-Horizontal Tool. Whenever I attempt to use this (trying to make multiple border outlines of text) the Contour becomes distorted downwards. I've tried converting the text to curves, curves + grouped, making the contours before or after the warp, and I get the same results. I have attached a .png showing original text, text w/contour, and text with contour and Arc-Horizontal.

Expected behavior: Text with contour to follow warp w/out distortions and be able to adjust the curve of the arc w/out additional distortions.

Thanks again. Looking forward to a fix or work-around.

Welcome to the forums @Lefo

One workaround is to create a rectangle, no-fill or stroke. Clip the Text inside the rectangle, then apply the warp to the rectangle.
