Darner Posted February 13, 2023 Posted February 13, 2023 Looks like text on a path does not scale with rest of the design after selecting all. Not sure if known issue, but let me know if video needed. Is it a bug or missing something? Quote
Old Bruce Posted February 13, 2023 Posted February 13, 2023 There should be a detached handle in the Lower Right of the selected (selected with the Move tool active) Text on a Path layer's bounding box. That should scale the text and the path. Hangman 1 Quote Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

I honestly didn't notice the text scaling when I used it. This was for weeks and weeks of me sometimes using it and sometimes not.

Would taken me a long time as well probably, and so appreciate that you shared.. Quote
Darner Posted March 8, 2023 Author Posted March 8, 2023 The more I've used it the more I realise - The detached handle for choosing to scale text on path with or without scaling text size, is actually pretty smart design by Affinity. Old Bruce 1 Quote

I never use it but I do agree with your comment that it is a nice bit of work by the Affinity developers. I have a lot of "Oh! Neat." moments while using the software.
