Curved Text for Affinity Photo?

[Zelatin]

So I've googled to see how to make curved text/ text following path of shape but it seems like they are either outdated or simply does not work? not sure if it's some kind of glitch or it was changed, just not updated on documents.

 

I've seen tutorial of clicking shape then use text tool on top of it but it didn't work, nor manually selecting it from LAYER to convert shape into path (Convert to Path wasn't under layer tab. I'm assuming that it was outdated tutorial cause that tutorial was made 2 years ago-ish).

 

Thank you.

What you saw were features of Affinity Designer. They are not available in Affinity Photo.

You can mould it in Photo, although it turns it into a raster image first.

Hi @Zelatin and Welcome to the Forums,

 

As others have pointed out, it's not possible in Photo.  However, this thread does have a workaround/cheat method so i'd suggest giving that a read
